Los Angeles Mediation Services: Resolve Your Dispute Without the Uncertainty of Trial
Legal disputes come with real challenges: mounting costs, time-consuming court proceedings, and the unpredictability of leaving the outcome in the hands of a judge or jury. Whether you’re an attorney seeking the best resolution for your client or navigating a legal conflict yourself, mediation offers a better path forward.
The reality? 97-98% of cases settle before trial. Mediation allows you to reach that resolution on your terms—maintaining control over the outcome while avoiding the financial drain and uncertainty of protracted litigation.
An Experienced Los Angeles Mediator Who Understands All Sides
Legal disputes aren’t one-dimensional. You need someone who can see your case from every angle and help all parties realistically assess their positions.
With experience representing both plaintiffs in catastrophic injury cases and defendants—including physicians, hospitals, dialysis centers in medical malpractice litigation, plus a clinical nursing background, I bring unique insight into what drives each side’s concerns and priorities.
I maintain an active law practice alongside my mediation work, ensuring I bring current, real-world insight to every mediation—I understand the challenges you’re facing and stay current on case law, jury trends, and litigation realities.
This perspective helps identify the strengths you can leverage and the vulnerabilities that need addressing. Whether you’re preparing for trial or exploring early resolution, that clarity is invaluable.
Personal Injury Mediation, Business Dispute Mediation, and Landlord-Tenant Mediation in Los Angeles
I handle cases at any stage: pre-litigation claims, active litigation, and matters on the eve of trial. Personal injury disputes, business conflicts, landlord-tenant issues—I’m here to help you move toward settlement.
What to Expect from Your Mediation
From the start, you’ll understand how mediation works. Every party will be heard. You’ll have space for meaningful conversations about resolution in an environment that builds understanding rather than animosity.
The goal is reaching a settlement that makes sense for everyone involved. And if the gap is too wide to close during our session, I stay engaged—following up through calls and emails to help bridge that final divide.

Due to the enormous benefits of on-line mediation, all mediations are conducted via zoom. We, as humans, were changed during covid. If there was a silver lining to the horror of the pandemic, it was technology becoming commonplace in many settings, including mediation. It is far more beneficial for parties to turn on a computer and sign on to a mediation session from the comfort of their home or office. This means parties arrive ready to mediate, not after all of the effort it takes to leave the house, coupled with the exhaustion of a 1-2 hour commute and finding their way to the conference room of a large office building.
That being said…. there are sometimes cases better served by an in-person process, such as when a party has suffered the loss of a loved one where the parties may be better served with a personal touch (although even then, it is best to defer to each person’s personal preference.) If you would like to have an in-person mediation session, please book a 15-minute consult with YourRNAttorney and we’ll make that happen.
