Steven G. Mehta

Having handled numerous complex legal matters involving six and seven figures, Steve Mehta has been frequently asked to mediate cases that involve a variety of complex and emotional issues. He has been selected as a Superlawyer Mediator in Southern California every year from 2005 to 2018. Over the years, Mr. Mehta has also taught thousands of attorneys how to better negotiate and achieve better results in mediation. His seminars are widely attended and are often praised as being one of the best seminars ever attended. He is repeatedly asked to lecture at the California State Bar Convention and other forums on mediation and other topics.

As an attorney, Steve has practiced on both the plaintiff and defense side and has represented insurance companies, corporations, healthcare providers, and consumers in a variety of legal areas including elder abuse litigation, medical malpractice, major personal injury, employment law and insurance bad faith. As a trial attorney, opponents describe him as fair, well prepared, and a tenacious and formidable opponent. In mediation, he utilizes those skills along with his ability to distinguish between important and trivial issues. In addition, his ability to quickly digest complex legal matters and his ability to successfully navigate emotionally charged issues makes him a highly effective mediator.

"As a defense attorney, I have worked with many mediators. Mr. Mehta is one of the best mediators I have seen. He works hard to achieve a fair resolution for both sides. He took time and skill to get the job done despite vastly different starting points."
