About & Mediation Philosophy

Neutral Profile

Craig walks in understanding the case’s unique contours and applying them to his decades of trial experience. He is not a “number carrier” or bully. Instead, he knows the verdicts and law, gives frank feedback, and lets the parties evaluate their risks. Craig’s credibility, established through helping both plaintiffs and defendants, enables him to connect in all rooms. Clients feel heard as he listens to their story and perspective. He persists—for months if necessary—to get the deal done.
