I am a full-time Miami Florida mediator with Salmon & Dulberg Dispute Resolution, helping lawyers achieve a more effective and meaningful mediation that enables their clients to make informed decisions concerning the resolution of their case.

My previous legal experience extends over 30 years as a trial lawyer representing both Plaintiffs and Defendants, as well as serving as an ethics trial lawyer for The Florida Bar. As a Florida Circuit Civil Certified Mediator since 2009, I mediate all Florida civil cases, including Florida commercial law mediation, Florida construction law mediation, Florida insurance law mediation, Florida personal injury mediation, and Florida real estate law mediation. I am grateful for the many testimonials (https://www.meaningful-mediation.com/florida-mediation-testimonials-reviews) that I have received from lawyers who have mediated with me.

In addition to my mediation work, I remain active in dispute resolution leadership, serving on the Executive Council and as former Chair (2021-2022) of the Alternative Dispute Resolution Section of The Florida Bar, as well as serving on the Alternative Dispute Resolution Committee for the Broward County Bar Association.

ADR Experience

Florida Supreme Court Certified Civil Circuit Mediator since 2009. Florida Supreme Court Certified Civil County Mediator and qualified arbitrator. Over thirty years of legal experience as a Florida trial lawyer with extensive experience in mediation and negotiations, and trial work involving business and commercial law matters, contracts, condominium/HOA issues, insurance law, personal injury, premises liability, and real estate. Active in dispute resolution leadership, including Executive Council Member and Past Chair for the Alternative Dispute Resolution Section of The Florida Bar, and Member of the Alternative Dispute Resolution Committee for the Broward County Bar Association. Frequent presenter for continuing legal education programs and at conferences for mediation and negotiation. Author of numerous articles on strategies and tips for mediation and negotiation, as well as how to improve outcomes during mediation.

Approach

My mediation approach rests on a powerful foundation of ethics, professionalism, and strategic thinking.
