Welcome!

Welcome to my website.  Thanks for visiting!

This site provides information about my practice as a Mediator, Arbitrator and Discovery Referee, and as a teacher and speaker on the subject of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR).  Here you can find my c.v., my areas of speciality, an update on my teaching and training activities, two articles by me, and my Los Angeles Daily Journal ADR Profile published on May 28, 2010.

I have been a courtroom lawyer since 1969.  I served as a judge of the Los Angeles Superior Court for 24 years - from 1984 to 2008.  I have tried hundreds of jury trials and hundreds of court trials.  For my final three years on the Court, I was a full-time Settlement Judge, guiding counsel and their clients to the resolution of hundreds of cases.

Since retiring from the Court in 2008, I have been in private practice as Mediator, Arbitrator and Discovery Referee in Los Angeles.  During that time, I have assisted counsel and parties in resolving dozens of cases.  I have also continued to teach and speak on dispute resolution topics.

I offer dispute resolution services (Mediation, Arbitration, Discovery References) exclusively through ADR Services, Inc. in Los Angeles.  I arrange teaching and speaking engagements separately and directly.  Through this web site, you can schedule dispute resolution matters with my ADR Services Case Manager, Ms. Ashley Roesler, and you can also email me directly.

As an alternative dispute resolution neutral, I do not practice law or give legal advice.  I am a neutral intermediary.  I may not and do not act as an advocate for any party to a dispute.  Nothing on this site is intended as legal advice.  Legal questions should be presented to a qualified attorney.

Thank you again for your visit!
