RETIRED JUDGE Dispute Resolution Services

We offer fast professional mediation and arbitration services throughout Virginia, and Maryland, as well as California and Washington State in some limited cases.

We also provide “Decisional Services” when mediation and arbitration do not work for whatever reason. Upon the Court’s permission, we can hear your case as a Judge Pro Tempore, Special Master, Court Referee, Discovery Special Master, or Magistrate (Maryland).

We also facilitate remote online dispute resolution services.

Lawyer Observations

“I’ve never appreciated anyone’s services more than yours on the day of the mediation.”
– Successful Mediation Client

“Judge Padrick proved to be a great neutral in getting my two cases settled.  His unique background and creative style brought forth settlements in which all of the parties were pleased.”

“I was amazed that Judge Padrick was able to reach resolutions in three separate and unique cases in which we hired him to mediate within a six-month period.”

“Judge Padrick was very adept in facilitating our Zoom mediation without outside assistance.  His use of private breakout rooms and screen sharing was perfect in getting our case resolved.”

“Judge Padrick was relentless in resolving our case.  When negotiations broke down during the mediation, he continued to seek dialogue for days after the session.  He settled our very complicated case two weeks after the mediation had concluded.”
