I took a Plaintiff-side wage and hour and whistleblower termination case to mediation with John Adler. He was truly excellent. His ability to communicate clearly and persuasively directly to the client, as well as to counsel, was outstanding. He is on our short-list.

I had the opportunity to represent an institutional defendant in mediation conducted by John Adler. As expected, John immediately grasped the facts and legal issues at the root of the case and at the end of a full day session was successful in settling the case.

My clients and I want a neutral who has actually won multi-million dollar plaintiff judgments and then collected. John has been there.
High-profile, go-to San Diego Plaintiffs’ employment attorney
John Adler is a great choice as a neutral for my business clients because he first-chaired many employment law jury trials, has both won and lost, and can assess merits and risk. He effectively serves the parties, and their lawyers, because he has been there.
Prominent Southern California Defense attorney
John understands how critically important the “human dynamic” is in the court room and in the mediation room. I have seen on a number of occasions, firsthand, how John appreciates the many nuances that can significantly affect the outcome of a high-stakes mediation.
