The Mediator

---

Forty-eight years as a member of the Alabama State Bar. Ten of them on the bench. The rest in the trenches with counsel and their clients.

He served as an Assistant District Attorney, then maintained a private civil practice for thirty years before taking the bench as Judge of Probate for Shelby County, Alabama.

From the Probate Court bench he presided over contested estates including trust construction, trustee removal, accountings and surcharge actions, fiduciary breach claims, guardianships and conservatorships, and the equitable matters that travel alongside them.

He now devotes his efforts exclusively to mediation, serving counsel and parties throughout Alabama in high-value probate, fiduciary, and complex civil disputes.

Eastern Shore Mediation is a full-time mediation practice. It is not a litigator’s side practice or an after-the-bench consultancy. Mediations are conducted in person at counsels’ location of choice anywhere in the state.
