Mediation & Arbitration

NELSON HESSE, LLP's legal team includes mediators certified by the Florida Supreme Court to mediate in Florida's County and Circuit Courts. Former Sarasota County Judge Preston DeVilbiss, Jr., leads the firm's mediation and arbitration group, joined by partners Steve Herb and Omer Causey. The firm's mediators have successfully resolved a wide variety of disputes, and we are available to help with virtually any type of contested matter, including, but not limited to, the following:

 

  • Business transactions

  • Discrimination in employment, housing & public accommodation

  • Employment contracts, non-competition & confidentiality agreements

  • Franchise & dealership agreements

  • Harassment & retaliation claims

  • Intellectual property, copyrights & trademarks

  • Personal injury, wrongful death & products liability

  • Real estate contracts & commercial leases

  • Technology & computer law

  • Trust & will contests

  • Whistleblower claims

We subscribe to and endorse the alternative dispute resolution goal of trying to assist parties as neutrals in resolving disputes in an amicable way, while saving them a substantial portion of the money and time that would be spent in litigating those disputes to conclusion in ordinary court proceedings.

Mr. Causey and Mr. DeVilbiss are both on the approved list of mediators for the Florida Division of Land Sales, Condominiums and Mobile Homes and are available to assist with matters within the jurisdiction of the agency.

Mr. Herb, Mr. Causey and Mr. DeVilbiss are also available to act as Trial Resolution Judges in voluntary trial resolution cases, as provided for in Section 44.104(2), Florida Statutes, and as Special Masters.

For further information regarding our services in the area of mediation and arbitration, contact Preston DeVilbiss, Jr., F. Steven Herb or Omer Causey at 941-366-7550.
