A Warm Welcome from the Chair
I am honored to serve as the Chair of the Federal Bar Association’s Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) Section. Whether I’m engaged as an advocate or as a neutral, my journey has always been driven by the quest for justice, a passion for learning, and the pursuit of collaborative resolutions. It is a privilege to be part of a section that resonates with these values.
This platform brings together a diverse community of legal professionals committed to fostering dialogue, enhancing learning, and promoting innovative practices in the ADR domain. Our section is dedicated to providing resources, education, and networking opportunities for our members while advocating for the thoughtful advancement of ADR methods. Through our events, publications, and online forums, we aim to create a vibrant and supportive environment where members can share experiences, discuss emerging trends, and contribute to the broader legal community.
I am eager to work alongside each one of you as we endeavor to strengthen our section and make a meaningful impact in the ADR field. To that end, I invite you to attend our section meetings, introduce yourself, and be an active part of our vibrant community. I encourage you to engage, share your insights, and take full advantage of the benefits and opportunities that our section offers. Together we can continue to uphold the principles of justice, equity and inclusion, promote professional growth, and contribute to the evolving narrative of alternative dispute resolution.
