Quinney College of Law and is a court qualified alternative dispute resolution provider with the Utah District Courts and the New Jersey Superior Courts. Jason is qualified to practice alternative dispute resolution in all 50 States.
Jason’s philosophy:
He helps conflicting parties resolve disputes without the “win-lose” constraints of litigation. As a mediator, he works closely with the conflicting parties, listens to all sides of the dispute, helps identify areas of concern, and works with them to explore underlying interests and possible solutions. Unlike an attorney, he does not take sides, nor does he have a professional or financial stake in the outcome. He does not decide an outcome or impose judgments. His sole objective is to support the parties, and advocate for a strong, fair and meaningful agreement.
