Peter Benner

Peter’s career has been devoted to resolution of difficult conflicts, through his practice of over 30 years at the law firm of Shipman & Goodwin, LLP in Hartford, Connecticut, where he engaged in healthcare and commercial litigation handling multiparty disputes with complex factual and legal issues both in Connecticut and in courts throughout the country. He served for 10 years as Chair of the firm’s Commercial Litigation Practice Group and for four years on the Management Committee. Peter’s commitment to and accomplishments in serving clients to find better ways to resolve disputes led to starting own dispute resolution practice in January 2010. That shift enabled him to focus entirely on dispute resolution as a mediator, arbitrator and adviser.
