The founders and attorneys at Warner, Federico & Ryan have extensive experience in all aspects of traditional trial advocacy at all stages of the process, from contested motions and evidentiary hearings to multiday trials on the merits. Yet, for many of our clients, the expense and notoriety inherent in a contested proceeding in the Probate and Family Court is an unwarranted intrusion into their private lives in a very public way. Not all cases are best suited for trial, and many of our clients seek a process that is more refined and private than that afforded in the Probate and Family Court system. For these clients, we offer services as advocates in mediation, conciliation, and arbitration.

Each of these dispute resolution processes is confidential and efficient.

As neutrals overseeing mediations, conciliation or arbitration proceedings, or as counsel representing clients in these matters, oftentimes before retired Probate Court judges, the lawyers at WF&R bring a wealth of experience and wisdom to the alternative dispute resolution process.

Please ask us if you think your matter might be suitable for a non-traditional dispute resolution process.
