Legal Experience |
|
Experience: | 35+ years of multi-jurisdictional employment litigation, mostly in federal courts. I have been engaged in trial practice since 1977. From 1992 - 2001, I represented mostly plaintiffs. From 2001 - 2003, it was mostly defendants. All other years have mixed plaintiffs and defendants, about 50/50. |

Additional Details: | I believe that it takes more than shuttling numbers to successfully mediate a case. I will use my knowledge of the substantive area of law and practical experience litigating similar cases, especially for both plaintiffs and defendants, to generate options that will lead to resolution. |
