Authenticity inspired by experience
Judge Jenevein is a mediator who cares deeply about helping people move beyond conflict. When disputes become personal, his goal is to help parties avoid the toll of litigation. And when the issue is purely financial, he knows that litigation rarely serves the bottom line. Businesses aren’t built to fight through motions and discovery—they’re meant to thrive in the marketplace. His commitment doesn’t end when a mediation concludes without resolution; he routinely follows up on unsettled cases, believing that persistence is essential to resolution.
Mediation Philosophy
Judge Jenevein prepares thoroughly, taking time to understand both the legal and practical issues before the mediation begins. In session, he’s candid but balanced—acknowledging each side’s strengths while challenging them to confront their weaknesses.
Rather than playing to one side or the other, he focuses on keeping everyone honest, grounded, and solution-focused. That’s how resolution happens.
Mediation Process
Judge Jenevein’s mediation process is structured yet adaptable.
-
He typically begins with a careful review of the position papers. If early, he may reach out to counsel beforehand, especially for complex or sensitive matters.
-
Prior to the session, he drafts a short-form settlement agreement with blanks for key terms. This allows for early feedback from counsel and helps ensure the mediation stays focused and efficient.
-
He generally starts with the plaintiff, outlines the process, and gathers an opening demand before moving between parties. Joint sessions are optional and used only when helpful. If the parties reach an impasse, he may propose a settlement for private consideration. If the matter doesn’t settle right away, he continues following up for as long as there’s a path forward.
