Privately-administered mediation for technically complex commercial disputes.
For matters where outcome turns on a question of fact only an expert can resolve — model behavior, log integrity, contract code, schema lineage. Half-day to multi-week sessions; $5M to $1B+ exposure.
Court-appointed for ESI protocols, discovery management, and complex protective orders.
Authoring ESI protocols, resolving discovery disputes in real time, and reporting findings to the appointing court. Fellow, Academy of Court-Appointed Neutrals; eDiscovery Special Master, U.S.D.C. W.D. Pa.
Independent third-party technical expert appointed by tribunal or counsel.
Tribunal-selected or party-stipulated. Designs the investigation protocol, conducts the analysis, and submits a written report. Engagements span trade secret, IP, fraud, employment, bankruptcy — including international device collection in coordination with FBI, Interpol, and counterparts.
Arbitrator and protocol architect under emerging AI dispute frameworks.
Arbitrator on tribunals applying AI-specific rules. Co-author of standing protective orders for model weights, training data, and inference logs. Familiarity with how to discover, examine, and authenticate evidence produced by or about machine-learning systems.
Sole or panel arbitrator for technically complex commercial matters.
Sole arbitrator and panelist for matters at the intersection of technology and contract. Member, London Court of International Arbitration; Hong Kong International Arbitration Centre; CPR Distinguished Neutral.
Special master appointments where the disputed question is itself technical.
Distinct from discovery management: the appointment exists to decide a technical question the court cannot practically reach — how a model behaved, whether a log is intact, what code actually does. Reports back to the appointing court on the narrow issue put to it.
Neutral for coverage disputes turning on what actually happened in the incident.
Coverage fights where the technical record decides the question — what was accessed, when, by whom, and whether the policy language reaches it. Mediator and arbitrator for insurer and policyholder disputes over breach response, business interruption, and forensic findings.
