Personal bio
I have been arbitrator since 1995, participated in mediation since the 1980s, represented parties in arbitration, been on single panel and three member panel (and been chairperson many times). In all these capacities, I have handled domestic and international matters. Since around 2016 to the present, in all matters that I have been single arbitrator or chairperson, the dispute has settled. I am a big promoter on mutual agreement on all matters and resolving discovery disputes informally. I believe in minimizing motion practice and promote email exchange with phone conference. I also promote with three member panel, a steamline approach to allow one panel member to handle as much as the parties will agree mutually.
