Hon. Rebecca Westerfield (ret.): JAMS Mediator, Arbitrator, Special Master  Hon. Rebecca Westerfield (Ret.) has settled and arbitrated thousands of domestic cases and cross-border disputes throughout the United States. A full-time JAMS panelist since 1992, Judge Westerfield is widely perceived as a tenacious mediator. She is included regularly on the „National Mediators” List, Chambers USA and she was noted as being at the „cutting edge of the field” by peers. Her extensive experience includes complex, multi-party, multi-issue cases with underlying insurance coverage disputes. She is particularly adept at dealing with matters that involve cross-cultural dynamics and high emotional content, such as business dissolutions, catastrophic personal injury litigation and family estate matters. Parties have included Fortune 500 companies and other publicly owned corporations, Silicon Valley entities and multinational corporations.  In arbitrations, Judge Westerfield is known for managing the process efficiently and fairly. Her managerial arbitration style provides parties with an opportunity to be fully heard while moving the process to conclusion.  Judge Westerfield was one of the first neutrals to begin using videoconference tools such as Zoom and other platforms to hear ADR matters virtually as needed for client and case needs.
