Bob Steinberg’s knowledge, experience, and committed approach make him a highly effective mediator. He works thoroughly to develop a strong command of the facts and issues and applies his refined skills to the case with poise and insight. As a result, Bob is able to educate both counsel and their clients on the value of resolving the dispute in a matter-of-fact and compelling manner.

Robert Steinberg brings practical skills to the mediation honed over years of experience in dispute resolution. He demonstrates an ability both to create useful options to resolve the matter by satisfying the interests of the disputing parties and to facilitate the parties in making a reality check whether a fair settlement is preferable the litigation alternative. The consummate neutral, he is a gentle, but effective persuader.

Bob Steinberg is one of the best mediators in this region.  He comes to the table thoroughly prepared, and he effectively helps all parties to a dispute understand why and how a mediated settlement makes sense.  Over the years, Bob helped me resolve some of the most contentious and sensitive cases that I’ve handled, and did so in a way that my clients understood and appreciated.  I enthusiastically recommend him and would be happy to talk with anyone who is considering engaging him in this role.

I, along with other members of our firm, primarily represent employees in difficult employment termination cases. Over several years, our firm and opposing counsel have selected Bob Steinberg as a mediator to facilitate a pre-trial resolution because of Bob’s experience as a former federal magistrate and his experience handling complex litigation. I have found Bob to be creative in his approaches to assisting both sides achieve resolution and he is a “go to” mediator in the Midwest. I would heartily recommend him if you are looking for an experienced mediator capable of achieving success.
