About Tom

Tom possesses the uncanny ability to cut to the heart of the matter and focus on the issues that are important, while at the same time lending a patient ear to all parties for their emotional catharsis. Tom is an active neutral, bringing his extensive litigation experience to bear on the process and, when needed, to educate the parties. Even on those rare occasions where cases do not settle, the parties invariably leave with the confidence that Tom did everything possible, and their trust in the mediation process, and Tom, remain intact.

Tom Tobin is smart, energetic and creative--all the skills you need to help litigants with different agendas resolve complex cases. When my clients are invited to participate in mediation, Tom Tobin is the neutral I call first because his legal acumen, professional integrity, and formidable skill set have produced impressive results time and time again.

As a plaintiff’s attorney who has handled catastrophic injury and wrongful death cases for many years, I have dealt with many mediators from all over the country. None are better than Tom Tobin. He has the experience, perseverance and presence to get the job done. I highly recommend him!

During my 29 years as a structured settlement broker, I have been involved in over 2,000 mediations all over this country. Of the many fine mediators I have had the pleasure to work with, Tom Tobin is my favorite. He brings his abundance of experience and knowledge to every situation and is a true facilitator in even the most complex of issues. His ability to successfully conclude case after case is truly amazing.

I first met Tom at a Henning mediation and have been continually impressed with his ability. Tom is a fair and professional mediator.

Tom Tobin gets your case settled. Period.

Tom Tobin has few equals as a mediator. He is the essence of an effective neutral.

After participating in hundreds of mediations over my career as a claims professional, I have found that there are two types of mediators. There are those who merely deliver messages to the respective parties, and then there are those who make a difference in achieving a resolution that would not otherwise happen. Tome Tobin is the later type. he is a difference maker.

Tom is an extremely well experienced mediator to whom I have frequently turned to try and resolve complex case, especially those involving medical malpractice claims. His insight and ability to see to the heart of the issues, whether it is the strength of a scientific defense, the overwhelming sympathy or the squabbling among co-defendants, have repeatedly helped me get cases settled that at the start of the process seemed destined for a costly and risky trial for all parties. if a case requires a strong mediator with great intellect and a keen assessment of the parties and their respective positions, there are few if any mediators who can complete with Tom.
