A great mediator for the tough cases.

I have been in trial practice in Pensacola for over thirty years and my experiences with Charlie Cetti as a trial attorney were top notch. Since he has been a full time mediator, Charlie Cetti is also one of the best mediators in Northwest Florida in my experience. In Pensacola, Mr. Cetti is in the ...very top tier of mediators and he has achieved excellent results in some of my most difficult cases. I recommend him as a mediator without any hesitation whatsoever.

Excellent mediation services

I have hired Charlie Cetti many times to mediate very difficult cases. On several cases nobody thought there was a chance to settle - Charlie Cetti was able to get it done by talking to everyone with plainspoken effective language that everyone could understand as well as real world examples ppulled... from his lifetime of expirence.

Outstanding Pensacola mediator!

I have mediated approximately 50 cases with Mr. Cetti over the past 10 years. In those cases, I have represented both Plaintiffs and Defendants, in a wide range of matters - from injury, commercial disputes, to employment law claims. He is in the top 5% of mediators easily. He has always, without ...exception, come to mediation well prepared, having reviewed the pre-mediation summaries in detail, and often having conducted research into the issues in our cases. I have seen cases settle that I honestly thought were highly unlikely to resolve. He has a very personable "bedside manner" and has always been able to communicate with a wide range of clients from differing socioeconomic backgrounds in a way that works for each. Having taken over 100 jury trials to verdict, participants know he comes to the table with the experience that not all mediators have. Charlie is a first name guy, and enjoys a stellar reputation with the local legal community. I strongly encourage you to consider Mr. Cetti as a mediator for any Florida case that may require his services.
