I have experience in a wide range of conflict areas including real estate, probate, construction, insurance settlement, neighborhood, environmental, industrial, land use, and workplace.
The principles that allow effective and appropriate mediated resolution apply to conflict in general, making the skills found in one area of conflict resolution readily transferable to others.
While some substantive knowledge is often desirable, I believe in most cases a well trained mediator can help parties to resolve their conflict regardless of the specific substantive detail of the case.
