- Partner of a Martindale-Hubbell Preeminent AV Rated Firm in the Bay Area
“Judicate West’s service is exceptional. This includes the selection process for the best mediator. Before selecting a mediator, I call one of the owners, describe the nature of the case, identify time pressure, give the names of the lawyers and parties involved, and describe any unique things which may impact resolution. Very soon after this, I get a list of those mediators who best fit the case. It makes the selection process more informed.”
