Attorney with over 25 years corporate law and business management experience with major technology and telecommunications companies now dedicated exclusively to providing mediation and arbitration services. Strong background and experience, particularly in transactional, commercial and finance areas. Substantial international experience. As managing corporate counsel, also had responsibility for most of the types of issues facing any company—labor, employment and ERISA; litigation; tax matters; intellectual property; regulatory and standards issues; real estate development and leasing; securities matters; corporate governance. Differentiating qualification is insider understanding of how corporate decision-making works, doesn’t work, and can be made to work. Basic belief is that most issues that reach the dispute resolution process are primarily business, rather than legal, matters and should be resolved as such. Mediation style is essentially facilitative.
