Other Experience :
For fifteen years before becoming an Arbitrator, Mediator, and Administrative Law Judge, I practiced Labor and Employment law in New York City on behalf of businesses, non-profit organizations, employees, and unions. During those fifteen years of litigation, arbitration, negotiation, and advocacy before administrative agencies, I participated in thousands of hours of mediation and successfully tried employment cases to verdict in Federal Courts as well as at Arbitration. For ten years, I primarily practiced “traditional” Labor Law in the public and private sectors as counsel for AFT, Local 2, I.B.T., Local 456 and the Transport Workers Union, Local 100. There, I served as a first chair negotiator for many initial and successor collective bargaining agreements and as counsel in more than three hundred and fifty contract and disciplinary arbitrations that reached decision and many more that were resolved through dialogue. I taught undergraduate classes in Labor Studies at SUNY Empire State College, I was elected to and served a three-year term as School Board Trustee for the Herricks Public School District, and I have litigated on behalf of several law firms.
