I recently had a mediation with Judge John Ward. It had been many years since my last case with him. After the first go around ended unsuccessfully with the numbers “far apart,” Judge Ward said that he would circle back with us. And sure enough he did reach back to us, and after a few days of phone calls, we settled. He belongs at the top of your list as a mediator for almost any case.
Judge Burke put forth extraordinary effort to settle. He was extremely well prepared and spent a great deal of time working with each party toward a compromise. Thanks to Judge Burke's follow-up efforts, post-mediation was disposed of by compromise. My client was extremely impressed with the preparation, effort and atmosphere established by Judge Burke.
