My Approach

An Expert, Practical Approach to Resolution

At JDH Dispute Services, we believe that the best outcomes are rooted in careful preparation, creative pragmatism, and compassionate dedication to solving the problem(s) presented by the dispute.  Our founder spent 35+ years litigating contentious, complex cases and now brings that hard-earned insight to ADR—helping parties find workable solutions without the delays, expense, and risk of trial.

Core Principles:

  • Neutrality with Depth

  • Efficiency without Sacrificing Thoroughness
    We value your time. We are committed to addressing cases promptly and moving them briskly toward resolution—without cutting corners or compromising fairness or deep attention to detail.

  • Clarity through Experience
    With decades in the litigation trenches, we know how disputes play out. That insight allows us to help parties assess outcomes realistically and make informed decisions, and to provide practical evaluation and guidance on litigation risk.
