Problem Solvers
We are problem solvers. We have a combined 200+ years of experience in mediating and settling disputes.
Professional Neutrals
Project proponents – a private developer building a commercial project, a public agency building a new road – often hire public relations professionals to inform the public about the project. We believe that this approach can sometimes resolve disputes before they arise. But when conflict does arise, we believe that only professional neutrals – experienced mediators with no stake in the outcome – can secure the confidence of all parties to be effective in reaching resolution. Our professionals have represented and resolved disputes among all forms of stakeholders -- companies, governments, environmental organizations and Tribes.
