"Richard, I had a feeling you were the right person for this. Having had to deal with the myriad of special interest factions as our County Bar leader I was confident you would be up to the challenge of taking on rooms full of competing interests on the defense side of this one. Now the number of people I did not expect, nor the Friday evening negotiating hours (and likely not you either ) but my clients and I truly were fortunate to have you as our mediator. I can’t thank you enough for putting in the effort you put in. Truly a mediation that always will stand out for me. Thanks for making it happen. "
