Testimonials

“We came into a medical malpractice paraplegia mediation with very low expectations of resolving the case. However, Mr. McIntyre hit the ground running, was up to speed on the case details, understood and appreciated the risks, and stayed overtime to work out a deal. He dealt masterfully with all facets of this case. We will absolutely use him as a mediator again!”


“Mr. McIntyre helped us resolve a very difficult case with great care and tenacity. He used a creative approach to the negotiation that was perfectly fitted to this case. We would not hesitate to return to him for other cases. We greatly appreciate his help. ”


“I have had two personal injury mediations with Mr. McIntyre. Both were settled as a result of the savvy and hard work he put into the negotiations. I would highly recommend him as a mediator, arbitrator or referee.”


“Through two mediations over one year, Mr McIntyre kept everyone working towards agreement even when the chances of settlement appeared low. His persistence even after the second mediation made the difference. The honest and knowledgeable assessment He provided of the strengths and weaknesses of the positions of all parties was invaluable.”


“As with many such cases, there were significant disputes over liability and damages. Mr McIntyre’s work in moving the parties together was very well done. Most of all, his ongoing efforts after the ½ day Mediation session ended via phone calls and e-mails was really what got the case resolved. Many mediators promise to follow up on cases that do not immediately resolve, but He came through in that regard and His ongoing efforts were clearly why the case settled.”


“Mr. McIntyre successfully mediated a very complex and contentious real property case that was believed to have little chance of being resolved before trial. He was well prepared, focused and dedicated himself to finding a settlement strategy that would work. His tireless efforts and high degree of optimism were critical in crafting a resolution and fine tuning the key details. I would definitely use his talents again in the future.”


“My mediation with Mr. McIntyre was an excelent experience. He was a straight shooter with the client and from the outset showed he was very familiar with the nature of the dispute and the issues involved in the dispute. He helped settle a difficult case. I feel he was instrumental in helping my client get this case settled. The ultimate compliment was when opposing counsel said the case settled for more than they intended to settle it for. I would not hesitate to use Mr. McIntyre again.”


“Mr. McIntyre is an extremely hard worker. It was a true pleasure to work with him. His relentless, very professional and understanding persistence post-mediation is what we credit with getting the case resolved. We look forward to seeing him on the next one.”


“Monty was very effective and great in assisting with resolving the matter! Was first time using this neutral but definitely will not be the last!”
