MEDIATION: A SMART AND EFFECTIVE ALTERNATIVE TO LITIGATION

Peter J. Lesser
brings over thirty years of broad litigation experience, extensive academic training and hands-on experience in mediation -- and a fair dose of common sense -- to the growing field of alternative dispute resolution.

As a Mediator, Peter helps individuals, businesses and their attorneys resolve their lawsuits and pre-litigation disputes by providing a comfortable and confidential environment in which the parties can negotiate a binding, mutually-acceptable resolution of their case.  Mediation is a smart and effective process because it gives the parties an active role in defining the real issues in dispute.  Mediation puts the decision-making in their hands – while avoiding the financial and emotional costs, delays, and inherent uncertainties of the litigation process.  Peter helps achieve resolution by being a good listener, a probing questioner of all parties' positions, and an active, creative and persistent consensus builder.

Peter is available to serve as a Mediator for:

·  Civil and Appellate Litigation, including Complex, Multi-Party Cases

·  Business, Employment and Workplace Lawsuits

·  Technology, Entertainment and Intellectual Property Disputes

·  Medical, Dental, Legal and Accounting Malpractice Claims

·  Real Estate, Construction, Development, HOA and Environmental Disputes

·  Accident, Major Injury and Wrongful Death Actions

·  Probate, Trust, Inheritance,  Partnership and Family Disputes.

Peter also stresses Litigation Avoidance through pre-lawsuit negotiation and mediation of business, workplace, family and partnership issues.
