If the circumstances of our clients' cases warrant it, we do not hesitate to participate in alternative dispute resolution procedures, such as mediation and arbitration, to resolve disputes to our clients' satisfaction, rather than needlessly escalating adversarial, expensive and time-consuming legal battles.  Put simply, we place a special emphasis on creative, flexible thinking in order to tailor our representation to our clients' needs.

The Firm intentionally endeavors to set itself apart from the general opinion and attitude surrounding many law firms. The Firm is founded on integrity, honesty, hard work and dedication to our clients. As our attorneys are in the business of solving problems, not creating more problems, they pride themselves in being available to our clients, to the public in general, as well as to opposing counsel. The Firm believes that most disputes, if not all, can be successfully resolved with plain professionalism and common courtesy to all those involved.

Scottsdale Mediation Attorney / Certified Mediator

Shane L. Harward is a certified mediator and Judge Pro Tempore with Maricopa County Superior Court.  Mr. Harward provides a wide range of services in the area of conflict resolution. The Firm has earned a good reputation in this area by helping parties obtain positive results in peacefully settling disputes without the expense and stress of litigation. Moreover, Mr. Harward is intent on serving those already involved in litigation in obtaining a successful conclusion to their lawsuit in a timely manner. Mr. Harward provides alternative dispute resolution services, including mediation, in all types of legal matters and is willing to work with the parties before and during the mediation, as well as following up if a compromise is not reached at the initial mediation conference.

Scottsdale Insurance Bad Faith Attorney

Shane Harward has built a solid reputation as an Arizona insurance bad faith attorney representing the interests of insureds against high powered insurance companies who are more concerned about the insurance companies' financial interests than honoring the insurance contract obligations to the insurance policyholders.  An insurance bad faith attorney needs to be prepared to diligently fight to empower the insured client against the insurance companies which are often being motivated by greed.  Mr. Harward continues to do this successfully.

Finally, Mr. Harward realizes that the Firm's responsibility to problem resolution extends well beyond the practice of law. The Firm is a caring, supportive member of the community. We have sponsored Little League Baseball Teams for children and City League Basketball Teams for adults. We have provided extensive pro bono legal services to numerous indigent clients through a variety of programs. In fact, Mr. Harward received an award for such service from the Maricopa County Volunteer Lawyers Program. Also, in this regard, the Firm continually provides help to needy Senior Citizens through the Arizona Senior Citizens' Law Project. In addition, Mr. Harward has participated in community and civic service organizations.
