Welcome

NOTICE re Zoom and Face-to-Face Mediations:

For the many months following the COVID lockdowns, Cynthia conducted only remote mediations using Zoom. Having now mediated scores of matters via Zoom, she finds the platform extraordinarily effective, offering many benefits without any downside. Thus, she mediates exclusively via Zoom absent an extraordinary need for an in-person session. Robert, Cynthia’s Practice Manager, works closely with Counsel regarding the right solution in each case. Please contact him at robert@remmersglobal.com or 510 452-5298 for availability or answers to other questions.

Cynthia Remmers practices as an effective mediator and arbitrator for a full range of individual, multiple-party and class action employment, intellectual property, and business disputes. 

In every engagement, Cynthia draws on her 35+ years of legal expertise and multicultural experiences gained as:

  • a senior in-house employment counsel in Asia and California;
  • a successful trial lawyer and law firm partner;
  • a Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals law clerk and Supreme Court of California extern; and
  • an involved Board member of numerous diverse professional associations and non-profit organizations.

Cynthia mediates exclusively via Zoom absent an extraordinary need for an in-person session. In such cases, she offers her comfortable conference space on the tip of Lake Merritt—a lovely and convenient part of downtown Oakland—or travels to mediate upon request.  Cynthia arbitrates exclusively as a panelist with the American Arbitration Association.

Mediation

Cynthia has mediated thousands of cases, filed and pre-filed, federal and state, 25+ years—all with a consistent success rate well above 90%. Cynthia attributes her mediation success to a combination of preparation, collaboration, expertise, persistence, and a direct but respectful approach.

Arbitration

As a member of the American Arbitration Association’s panels, Cynthia has arbitrated scores of cases to effective resolution, covering a wide range of employment and business disputes. She has arbitrated the claims of individuals, multiple-parties and in class actions.
