In the last decade, Ms. Robberson has led a team of talented, bi-lingual (and tri-lingual), diverse business litigators.  She has represented U.S. and international clients, Fortune 500 companies, billion-dollar real estate investment clients and REITs.  Her cases include multi-jurisdictional litigation, international arbitration, complex, multi-party mediation and, of course, California litigation.

After 25 years of a robust litigation practice, Ms. Robberson is now adding mediation to the services she offers. And her bi-cultural background is instrumental to that new area of practice.  Even if all parties are speaking the same language, communication overall can be vastly different amongst different cultures.  Knowing how to interpret the communication styles of the U.S. and other cultures is imperative in figuring out the true goal of the parties in a negotiation.  Ms. Robberson’s mediation practice is premised on the belief that if we can approach negotiation consistent with the parties’ respective communication style and value system, great things may be accomplished.

In addition to her expertise and business acumen, Ms. Robberson is bringing much needed diversity to the world of mediation.
