This is a sampling taken from ASP's Business Law Panel of Portland attorneys, which illustrates the high quality of ASP's mediators and arbitrators and the type of biographical information supplied. ASP has over 400 arbitrators located throughout Oregon. A separate panel exists for each area of the law. In single arbitrator cases, ASP composes a list of six or more names. Each side may strike two names and number the others in order of preference. ASP selects the arbitrator from the unstricken names and in accordance with the parties' mutual preferences.
