Judge John Downey

Mr. Downey devotes most of his practice to mediation, arbitration, and dispute resolution, including serving as a judge in mock trials and summary trials. He was Chairman of the Rome McGuigan Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) practice group. Mr. Downey has been named one of Greater Hartford’s top attorneys for Alternative Dispute Resolution in the April 2011 edition of Hartford Magazine. In November 2013, he was named one of Fairfield County’s “Legal Eagles” in Greenwich Magazine for his ADR work. Mr. Downey recognizes the need to review the facts quickly, efficiently, and fairly, hear the information presented, and seek out the common ground for the resolution of disputes. Having a caring, sensitive neutral who listens actively to all parties can go a long way to resolving disputes which are often complicated by non-legal, personal, or family issues.
