“Our first mediation with Holly presented a client who swore it would never settle, on principle. For almost two years the client resisted all efforts. Holly settled the case in one day. Since then we have had the pleasure of working with Holly on many matters, and she has been instrumental in making each one a success. Being an expert in the subject matter is a given, but what sets her apart is her command of the case due to her obvious preparation, and her efforts to ‘hear’ the parties and find the path to understanding. While we of course are not in the other room, the results speak for themselves. She is now our go-to mediator, and with good reason.”
“You did a terrific job mediating this case yesterday. I do not say that lightly and given my experience with mediators you are one of the best ones I have used over the years. I was impressed with your job mastering the facts, evidence and giving us your insights based on your experience as a mediator and practicing lawyer. It was a pleasure working with you and I hope our paths cross in the future. ”
“Holly Weiss is the kind of mediator I wish I had on all of my matters. She firmly understood the legal and factual issues and pushed the parties on their interpretation of the law in a highly productive manner. Her long history as a litigator also allows her to employ effective strategies to move the mediation along without wasting time. At the end of our mediation, both parties were incredibly happy not only with the outcome, but also with the process itself. ”
“This was a difficult case to settle – the parties had been at a standstill for months. Holly’s assistance was crucial to actually reaching a settlement.”
“I have had the occasion to work with Holly as an adversary and as a colleague. Holly is bright and creative in looking for solutions to difficult problems. She is kind and courteous and interested in helping to resolve conflicts.”
“Holly is calm, professional and persistent.”
