Mediation Practice

Shidlofsky Law Firm PLLC Austin, Texas

In addition to his insurance coverage practice, Lee H. Shidlofsky has a niche mediation practice that specializes in multi-party construction defect disputes and insurance coverage matters.

In the context of construction defect disputes, Lee has successfully mediated numerous school district, hospital, condominium, and general construction defect claims. These claims oftentimes include complex coverage, additional insured and contractual indemnity issues that need to be resolved along with the defect dispute. With respect to coverage matters, he has mediated a variety of first-party and third-party insurance claims, both contractual and extra-contractual, as well disputes among insurers.

Although a policyholder lawyer, Lee became a mediator at the request of insurers who wanted a mediator that understands insurance and would take coverage issues into consideration when facilitating a settlement.
