Lee Mendelson

Biography

For over 27 years, Lee Mendelson, Esq. has been a leading advocate in civil litigation, representing clients in complex disputes involving insurance coverage, personal injury, subrogation, workers’ compensation, product liability, debtor/creditor issues, and real estate conflicts. Over time, he discovered that the most meaningful victories came not from trials, but from successful negotiations.

Today, Mr. Mendelson is a full-time mediator who draws on his extensive litigation experience to help parties resolve disputes efficiently and fairly. Known for his ability to de-escalate conflict and foster constructive dialogue, he focuses on shifting parties from entrenched positions to practical, lasting solutions.

In 2006, he founded the Mendelson Law Group, growing it from a solo practice into a 20-member firm renowned for handling high-value insurance litigation. As lead counsel, he managed complex, multi-party cases and consistently achieved resolutions that saved clients significant time and cost. Even amid courtroom success, his passion for collaborative dispute resolution never faded.

As a mediator, Mr. Mendelson applies a pragmatic, results-driven approach rooted in preparation and persistence. He carefully reviews briefs, conducts pre-mediation calls to identify obstacles, and uses techniques such as mediator proposals, bracketed negotiations, and interest-based bargaining. If a matter doesn’t settle immediately, he continues working behind the scenes to close the gap.

Respected for his professionalism and balanced demeanor, Mr. Mendelson creates an atmosphere of trust and collaboration that encourages open dialogue and practical outcomes. Guided by the belief that persistence bridges the gap between impasse and resolution, his mission remains clear: to help people find common ground and achieve solutions that endure—both legally and personally.
