David Spellman

Description of Practice

I mediate all employment disputes. I am also a marital mediator, with the goal of the couple working things out to stay together.

Professional Background

BS Industrial and Labor Relations, Cornell University; JD The Cornell Law School. M.S. Mental Health Counseling St. Thomas University, LL.M in Tax Law University of Miami Law School

24 years as a General Counsel and 6 years as a CEO.

Mediation Experience

I have mediated employment cases heavily since 2005 and marital matters (helping keep couples together by resolving their issues) since 2013.

Mediation Approach & Philosophy

My approach is to listen because the parties often have the resolution within themselves. I will also, as needed, be active and probe with questions. I prefer everyone at the same table but will shuttle between rooms if needed.
