Description
Ann is everything an attorney trying to resolve a difficult case could want in a mediator: smart, insightful, effective, and dedicated to the process and the people involved. Ann not only understands substantive areas of law and coverage issues necessary to analyze a case and get it resolved, she has keen insight into the human dynamics, motivations, and emotional issues underlying the disputes she mediates. A true professional neutral, Ann works hard to achieve a fair and just resolution, while acknowledging the people who want (or need!) to put a dispute behind them and move on with their lives. I highly recommend Ann Anderson to both plaintiff and defense counsel as an outstanding mediator. Janean Acevedo Daniels Employment attorney It is my pleasure to recommend Ann Anderson as a mediator. Ms. Anderson has mediated several employment law cases for my clients. I have found her to be extremely well versed in employment law. She quickly grasps complex legal and factual issues and is able to analyze them quickly. My clients have appreciated her empathy and ability to communicate vital concepts simply and clearly. She is resourceful and creative and uses those traits effectively to avoid and resolve impasses in negotiation. Ms. Anderson exhibits tenacity and 'stick-to-it-iveness' in overcoming obstacles to settlement. James Cordes Plaintiff’s Employment Law Attorney Having had the sincere pleasure of working with you on numerous mediations, I can say, without equivocation, that you have a mastery of the mediation process that few mediators ever accomplish. You blend a calm insightful intelligence with skilled negotiating skills, and the result has been settlements in any number of cases I have had with you. I have especially appreciated your perseverance in the more difficult cases, which are not always the biggest cases. Your patience, negotiating and people skills, your sixth sense on when to divulge information and when to let a party have time to absorb information has clearly made the difference in closing settlements. On a personal note, your wit, intelligence, and kindness are always delightful, and I have thoroughly enjoyed the mediation process with you. I look forward to your success, and many more mediations with you in the years ahead. With best personal regards James P. Dexheimer Defense Counsel, Allstate Insurance Ms. Anderson was very skilled in negotiating and handling the parties. In addition, she had a firm grasp of both the facts and the law involved in our dispute. As a result, she was able to quickly gain the confidence of my clients, which is necessary in any mediation. Henry Bongiovi Employment Attorney Ann brings to the mediation process a whole host of admirable skills and qualities. She is the consummate professional in what she communicates as well as what she does not. Her excellent listening skills translate easily into shared empathy and compassion. She presents a calm yet confidant demeanor. Her sincerity exudes trustworthiness, which is neither contrived nor ever breached. Ann knows the law and how to negotiate with it. She perseveres even in the face of unreasonable advocates that have no understanding of the true meaning of mediation. Bravo Ann! Erin Parks Employment Attorney I have utilized Ann Anderson as a mediator on several occasions and she has also served as a settlement master in my litigation cases. I have always found Ann to be an effective and extremely conscientious neutral. She is an experienced civil litigator and also is very knowledgeable in employment law, which is my particular specialty. She used this experience and knowledge to assist in closing cases. She consistently was a patient listener but also worked hard to reach settlement. I recommend her highly and would not hesitate to use her in the future. Patrick O’Hara Employment Attorney
