Alternative Dispute Resolution Representation (including arbitrations and mediations)

Mediation brings opposing parties together with a neutral third party—a mediator—whose role is to help both sides reach a mutually acceptable resolution. While the mediator facilitates communication and settlement discussions, they do not represent or protect your legal interests.

Since these decisions can significantly affect your rights and finances—often without ever going to court—it’s crucial to have a skilled advocate on your side. Attorney Michael D. Doyle will work to ensure your case is clearly presented and your interests are fully protected throughout the arbitration process.
