Recommendations and Praise

"I've had the priviledge of knowing Jim for four years, initially as my professor at the University of Denver, then as a mentor and participant in the conceptualization and formation of Colorado Mediators & Arbitrators.  His insights and guidance continue to be invaluable.  Because of the extensive number of cases he has arbitrated, both as a panel member and chair person, along with his keen interest and dedication to the Dispute Resolution profession, Jim is a resource for his peers and colleagues. As an arbitrator, Jim is fair and judicious, demonstrating punctuated respect for the parties. Jim's generousity extends to several charitable organizations, as he freely gives of his time and resources for worthy community causes. It is a truly an honor to know such a man the highest caliber of character."
