ADR Profile of Judge Al Dover ( R ) – SF/LA Daily Journal – 12/12/14
“… he is, like his adopted hometown, the gold standard among mediators and their first choice to resolve disputes. ”
” He is a very judicious and wise man. At the same time, he is able to go brass tacks and calculate numbers and know the issues quickly.”
“His approach is connecting on a personal level…You need a good blend of business sense and old fashioned counselor, and he excels at both.”
