Named to Central District of CA Mediation Panel

Aug162012
Mediation

As many of my colleagues are aware, the Central District of California established a Mediation Panel (pursuant to Local Rule 16-15.4) to handle various cases that come before the court. Accordingly, the Panel consists of ‘qualified and impartial attorneys who encourage the fair, speedy, and economical resolution of civil actions;’ an appointment I am proud to announce that I have received.

Panel Mediators are appointed by the Court and in order to serve as a Panel Mediator, a person must be a ‘member in good standing of the Bar of the United States District Court, Central District of California, with at least ten years legal practice experience, substantial experience with or knowledge of civil litigation in federal court, and significant expertise in one or more designated areas of law.’ Additionally, I completed a court-approved training course in mediation.

For those interested in learning more about the Central District of California’s Mediation Panel, it offers three Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) options: 1) a settlement conference with the district judge or magistrate judge assigned the case; 2) a mediation with a neutral selected from the Court Mediation Panel; and 3) private mediation (please see Civil L.R. 16-15.4;General Order 11-10 for the local rule governing this procedure).

I am honored to be a part of such a notable group of California attorneys and look forward to my work as a proud member of the Central District of California Court Mediation Panel.

  • [Bruce] knows when to talk, when to listen, and how to work the room.”

    James Thompson

  • Bruce took time to point out parts of each side’s case that could be made stronger and parts that could be deemphasized or omitted. Bottom line: the client came out of the exercise with a more focused case and better able to advance its positions. Bruce was superb.

    Ellis Mirsky
    The Network of Trial Lawyers
  • Bruce was prepared and understood the issues and the practical aspects of the cases. I really appreciated Bruce’s efforts in continuing to work with me and opposing counsel and his perseverance in settling the case.

  • I have known Bruce for years and highly recommend him. As a native New Yorker, he will be hearing significant matters in NYC as well as in L.A.

  • Bruce’s willingness to continue to follow up with both sides to settle the matter and his efforts in speaking directly with the clients to explain the issues and possible outcomes should the case proceed to trial were invaluable.

    P. Garrell

  • From the outset of the mediation, it was clear that Bruce understood the case and structure of a class action settlement. He was effective in his discussion of the issues in the case and made many helpful and constructive suggestions with respect to the negotiating process and the settlement terms.
