Hon. Glen M. Reiser (Ret.)

Hon. Glen M. Reiser (Ret.) joined JAMS with vast experience adjudicating and resolving thousands of complex trust, commercial, and real property/environmental disputes as a respected trial judge and litigator. Judge Reiser spent more than 20 years on the Ventura County Superior Court, serving as both supervising probate/trust/conservatorship judge and California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) judge for more than a decade. Prior to his appointment to the bench, over two additional decades he litigated hundreds of civil cases to successful conclusion in trial and appellate courts throughout California.
Judge Reiser is sought-after as a mediator and arbitrator throughout the state. He does not bill for travel time or expenses. Counsel who have mediated with Judge Reiser note:
"I greatly appreciated your assistance with this mediation. Your pre-mediation telephone conference was extremely valuable, as well, to discuss the specifics of the case, the claims, and settlement postures taken by the parties and counsel, in advance. I felt that we immediately hit the ground running when we began that morning."
"Your professionalism, approachability and sage counsel kept things on track, and it appeared that you were able to see through literally decades of smoke and discern the family dynamic at issue."
"Yet again, you did a masterful job in reading the parties and counsel involved; kept us talking productively at all times; used your experience on the bench to help the parties adjust their pre-existing 'I'm not going below...' expectations by having them confront new information and its impact on their pre-determined strength of their case; and then made the call at the right time to separate parties to put everyone on shaky ground, which led to all parties incentivized to reach a global settlement."
