Alternative Dispute Resolution
My 20 years of experience as a defense litigator and additional 12+ years of experience contracting for both defendants’ and plaintiffs’ attorneys has provided me with a unique perspective and objectivity that is ideal for arbitration and mediation.
As an attorney who has tried jury trials to verdict, I understand the costs and uncertainties of litigation – and the appropriate use of arbitration and mediation as alternative forms of dispute resolution. My commitment as an arbitrator or mediator is to provide neutral, well-reasoned, and objective decision making to resolve your case quickly and fairly. My legal areas of expertise include:
• Negligence
• Wrongful death
• Product liability
• Toxic torts
• Railroad and trucking
• Insurance coverage

• Current FINRA arbitrator
• Multnomah County Arbitration Training (2006, 2010, 2017)
• FINRA training (2012)
