Firm: Mediation Offices of Susan G. Feder

111 Bay Way , San Rafael , California 94901 Zip code: 94901

Practice Areas: Mediation

As a mediator, I focus on making the parties feel heard and understood. Our goal is to reach a mutually satisfactory resolution of the issues with a minimum of discord. I am particularly skilled at diffusing highly emotional issues, and try hard to make the process as painless, enjoyable and satisfying as possible. Being fully prepared on all of the factual and legal issues, and working hard for the parties before, during and after the session has ended are of utmost importance. I also bring an optimistic and positive attitude, excellent listening skills, attentiveness, curiosity, kindness and empathy to all mediations. I avoid imposing my own views, maintain neutrality, and allow the process to guide the parties to a resolution on their own terms.

Firm: Intrepid Dispute Resolution

80 W. Sierra Madre Blvd. #127 , Sierra Madre , California 91024 Zip code: 91024

Practice Areas: Mediation

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.

Firm: Lindenauer Victoria, Law Offices Of

PO Box 30306 , Santa Barbara , California 93130 Zip code: 93130

Practice Areas: Mediation

After more than 25 years litigating on the central coast, I became passionately focused on mediation and began making the transition to full-time mediator. After completing intensive training at the Straus Institute for Dispute Resolution at the Pepperdine University School of Law (ranked the number one dispute resolution program by U.S. News and World Report for the seventh consecutive year), I began settling cases at a high rate privately and through the Court(s).. You may be wondering what is different about me. I am told by mediation participants that I have a unique ability to read and understand people, to diffuse tense and emotional situations, and to quickly identify intangibles that might be interfering with settlement. These attributes work well in combination with my penchant for diplomacy and my long history evaluating and resolving my own civil cases. My approach is focused, efficient,cost-effective, and results oriented. I have developed a reputation for persistence and enthusiasm and I will follow up at no additional cost on any matter I have mediated, until it is settled!. My background gives me credibility and an “ear” with both the defense and plaintiff bar. My legal career began in insurance defense as an associate with Archbald & Spray (1986-1992), progressed to a partnership of mixed plaintiff and defense work at McIvers & Lindenauer (1992-1994), and ultimately led me to a solo practice in plaintiff PI (beginning in 1994).. I am an approved mediator by Santa Barbara Superior Court, Ventura Superior Court and San Luis Obispo Superior Court.. I mediate many types of personal injury and business matters.  I look forward to working with you to settle your next case!
