"I thought Judge Rosen was excellent. Very well prepared. Developed an in depth understanding of the case quickly and the personalities involved. Our case was a very difficult one to settle but Judge Rosen did his best to reach an agreement."
"Judge Rosen brings a great deal of intelligence and gravitas to his mediations. He's very thoughtful, well-prepared, and he doesn't get riled up. He takes a very legal and practical approach in a very calm and measured way. He can speak very well with business owners and executives. For a more complex legal issue - or something where you're dealing with professionals or more intellectual folks - I think he comes off very well for both sides."
"Judge Rosen is not perceived as somebody that's for one side or the other. He's perceived as somebody with integrity. And he worked each side the way an effective mediator should by understanding what's the medicine, what happened in the incident, what are the expectations of the party, what's at issue and what can I accomplish here. He gave my client a really good understanding about what could be done and what couldn't be done. That allowed us to kind of reset our expectations, and I think he did the same thing with the other side. Had we just continued with our original expectations, we probably wouldn't have settled because we would have been seeking way more than they would have paid."
"I appreciated Judge Rosen's willingness to thoughtfully discuss the case's merits. He engaged with me, he engaged with the other side very specifically about various issues of the case and how he would address them. He didn't just go back and forth, delivering a message of: 'Their offer is this. What do you want to do?' He really would engage on a granular basis on the arguments that were being made and how - if he were on the bench - he would probably be likely to look at it. And that was very helpful."
"I really appreciated working with Judge Rosen. Very intelligent, and he pushed to resolve our case."
"Judge Rosen was able to get both sides to agree on a number, overall a positive experience. Would definitely use him again."
"Judge Rosen is great. Very impressed with his preparation and even temperament."
"Judge Rosen was an excellent choice for mediation. He was fair, and was well-versed on the case. Judge Rosen held a very productive pre-mediation meeting, and was thoughtful finding solutions on this matter. I look forward to working with David Rosen again."
"Great experience. Judge Rosen’s professionalism and insight on the case were helpful. Judge Rosen was very nice to my client and clear about what mediation is and the his role in the matter as well. I look forward to working with him again in the future."
"Judge Rosen is outstanding. I have now used him twice, on two very difficult cases (the first was difficult on liability, the second on causation), and he was able to get the cases to resolution in an amount that both the client and I thought was excellent. He has a great style, relates well to clients, and is very effective with both sides. I recommend him highly."
