Mediation is an opportunity to create a resolution that works for you and is within the law.For the last 5 years I have mediated several hundred cases and have seen how quickly a resolution can come together.Prior to becoming a mediator I worked in human resources at large companies for over two decades. I saw how problems spiral due to incomplete communication. And the current system has no real answer to this problem.. Here is how it happens.. During a conversation, one person hears maybe half of what the other says and then their internal dialogue fills in the rest. The conversation is over. Both walk away believing they understood and that the other party understands them, except neither does. Their expectations are misaligned. An element of disappointment and frustration has entered their relationship. As time moves forward disaster awaits.. Things get worse. If a power dynamic is in play then one person generally feels that they have to maintain their position and the other maybe afraid of losing their job. Result, communication deteriorates. Nothing gets fixed.. This is why I love mediation.. There is confidential space to unpack these missed opportunities. People can explain what they meant and more importantly why it is important to them. And from this we can create an opportunity for both parties.

I believe in upfront fees, straighttalk, and swift action on behalf of my clients.  As a former smallbusiness owner myself, I have personal experience with the daily issuesyou face running and growing a your own company.  And because I focus mylaw practice on representing California contractors, subcontractors, andmaterial suppliers, I bring a thorough understanding of the specific legalchallenges faced by California construction business owners.. I began my professional career asan entrepreneur by founding the Lighten Up Improv Co. in Kansas City,Missouri.  I produced and directed comedy shows and tours while developingand facilitating Corporate Teamwork & Creativity Seminars for clientsnationwide, including several Fortune 500 companies.  Ten yearslater I moved to southern California and formed a start-up internet salesbusiness.  And five years later I put myself through law school at nightwhile working in the construction business by day.  Muchof my family has been in the Southern California constructionbusiness for over 30 years.. I am a graduate of the University of Missouri and Concord LawSchool, and a member of the California State Bar, the Los Angeles County BarAssociation, and the American Bar Association.  Originally from theMidwest, I now make my home in Southern California with my wife andtwo children.

I am a zealous advocate for my Clients and always strive to put my them in the best position possible.. As far as my style of representation, I prefer to have an informed Client who's able to make informed decisions so I strive to impart an understanding of what is going on, what I believe to be the best legal course of action, and why.. As an immigrant myself from over 35 years ago, I believe in Truth, Justice, and the Amercian  Way and work hard to fight for Justice for my Clients..
