Biographical InfoMichael Bachner brings more than three decades of courtroom and counseling experience to his work as a mediator, helping parties resolve business and employment disputes without the cost, delay, and uncertainty of trial. Having served as a prosecutor, defense counsel, and in-house corporate attorney, he understands every side of a conflict and uses that perspective to move parties toward practical, lasting resolutions.
A veteran trial lawyer who has tried cases in state and federal courts and in arbitration, Michael knows firsthand what parties stand to gain or lose if a matter does not settle. That insight informs how he mediates: he reads competing interests quickly, earns the trust of parties on both sides, and keeps negotiations focused on outcomes people can live with. He is a member of The American College of Trial Lawyers and the Top 100 National Trial Lawyers, and a frequent legal commentator for national media.
Michael mediates disputes including:
Specialties: Insider trading; securities regulation and fraud; bank fraud; NYSE, CFTC, FINRA and SEC investigations; narcotics defense work; health-care defense.
