Mitch Tarighati is a seasoned mediator with an exceptional track record of settled cases who has been engaged in dispute resolution work since 2012, resolving cases with complex issues by diplomatically and patiently bridging the divide between the parties. His unwavering work ethic, personable demeanor, and passion for results have all contributed to his reputation among his peers, the plaintiff’s and defense bars, and insurance industry professionals as an extremely effective neutral. Join Len and Mitch as they discuss what to do when emotions dominate, parties see the other as the primary problem, or where no settlement is possible unless a personal reconciliation occurs.

Mitch draws upon a lifetime of diverse experiences and a unique multicultural perspective to resolve the disputes he mediates. His interpersonal skills are well known, with colleagues commending him on his respectful and patient approach, friendly disposition, and ability to connect with clients of different backgrounds.

He began his legal career working for a sole practitioner and thereafter became an associate in a boutique firm defending E&O claims against real estate agents and brokers. In 2008 he joined a statewide law firm in California, where he developed a new practice area for the firm in the field of education and school liability law. In this capacity, he represented institutional clients in tort and employment cases and became a partner in the firm. In 2012 Mitch co-founded his own firm, where, in addition to his mediation practice, he pursued a practice representing both plaintiffs and defendants. In 2017 he joined ADR Services, and in late 2021 Mitch ceased practicing law to pursue a full-time mediation practice.

Mitch was born in Iran but moved to England at the age of eight where he later attended a preparatory and military-style school. After studying at the University of London for a year, he moved to Los Angeles in 1995, where he obtained a Bachelor’s degree in Business Law. He subsequently moved to New York City and earned a J.D., as well as an M.B.A., focusing on the areas of corporate law and finance.
