separator

Appointed by the court to inform future actions, Special Masters are able to devote the time necessary to define fact finding and assist in pre-trial discovery, as well as, act as a neutral in Arbitration or other forms of ADR to aid in the expedition of complex or highly specialized cases.

Cases which are particularly complex tend to lead to extensive and costly litigation. Appointment of a Special Master can be a solution to fact finding issues by defining a stipulated set of facts. A Special Master can be extremely beneficial in assisting in pre-trial discovery focusing the parties on admissible discovery for trial. As a third party neutral, the Special Master can provide settlement negation services which move the case to resolution more readily and at less cost than traditional litigation with less burden on the court and the parties.
