About Richard
Biography
After over 30 years of experience representing clients in construction and complex business litigation matters, I am excited about offering my services as a mediator. While I will continue representing clients in litigation and counseling them regarding construction and business matters, I am devoting a significant portion of my practice to helping parties resolve their civil disputes in mediation.
I am registered with the Georgia Office of Dispute Resolution. I have experience mediating cases involving construction, contracts, employment, and real estate matters. I also have experise helping parties with domestic relations disputes.
