ROBERT JACOBS

I would highly recommend Bob as a mediator for real property disputes, especially those involving difficult personalities (and most do!)

He kept the negotiation going until an agreement was reached that satisfied my client and saved the other side the costs of a fruitless defense. I would definitely be willing to use him again representing either side.

I was highly satisfied with Mr. Jacobs and wholeheartedly recommend him to disputants seeking a professional, ethical and effective professional neutral.

Bob treated everyone with respect. He was tenacious and hard-working throughout, refusing to contemplate failure. The case not only resolved, the parties came out of the process feeling like they had been heard and understood, and were able to move on.

I found Bob to have an excellent command of the facts and applicable law, and he was able to identify the one or two issues the case would turn on. He also had a good sense of the dynamics between the parties and what would be needed to make the next mediation session a success.

I highly recommend Mr. Jacobs as a mediator. He is an invaluable asset to the legal community.

Mr. Jacobs served as mediator in one of my cases earlier this year. I found he was able to quickly grasp the key issues and points of dispute, successfully identify and then address the parties’ concerns and values, and make significant efforts to move the parties toward a mutually agreeable resolution.

I have had the opportunity to work with various mediation providers, ranging from JAMS to private mediators, such as Mr. Jacobs. I can confidently say that Mr. Jacobs is one of the most effective mediators that I have worked with, and I would welcome the opportunity to mediate a future matter with him.
