"Mel and I have had complex cases against each other in
the past (medical malpractice; catastrophic injury/death
matter) so I was already aware of his expertise and high
credentials
as a litigator. What I did not know until our mediation, was
that Mel was such a terrific
mediator. Although we hit Mel with a complicated securities
case with differing levels of
twists and turns, he immediately grasped the issues and
focused in on key nuances that ultimately resulted in a
favorable settlement. Mel and his staff were at all times
attentive, involved, and engaging. Certainly I will be using
his services again in the future."
Doug Williams, Esq.
