Peggy Gehl has been selected to work with some of the top civil, family, guardianship and probate practitioners in the community. Protection of the rights of the incapacitated has always been a top priority, as well as extraction of the outer layer in a family case to discover the true motivation behind a party’s interest. Her developed sense of listening helps her determine motivation– the key to a successful mediation. Her years of practicing civil law has enhanced her ability to flesh out the issues in civil suits efficiently.

“I have been practicing in the area of Probate and Trust Litigation for the past 12 years.  I have utilized retired Judge Peggy Gehl as a mediator numerous times over the last few years.  What sets her apart from other mediators (aside from her vast knowledge and experience in Probate and Trust law) is that she gets actively engaged in the process and genuinely wants the parties to reach an amicable resolution to their disputes.  She carefully and thoroughly reads all of the materials in advance of mediation, and challenges both sides regarding the strengths and weaknesses of their respective positions.  Even though she successfully resolved almost every case she has mediated for me, she routinely follows up to offer any assistance she can to facilitate an ultimate resolution in those rare instances when a settlement is not reached at the mediation conference.  For these reasons and many others, I highly recommend Judge Gehl as mediator.”

Jeffrey S. Bunin, Esq.

“Judge Gehl is a truly effective mediator who treats attendees at mediation with courtesy, knowledge and skill. As a result, her success as a mediator is unmatched.”

Attorney Jerome R. Siegel

“It was my pleasure to appear before Judge Gehl in her capacity as a Senior Probate Judge. She is prepared, interested, and analytic. As a mediator, she far exceeds any expectations for any probate mediator. She listens, she encourages, and she always reaches an agreement.”

Attorney Jody Leslie, Leslie & McLaughlin, LLP

“Peggy Gehl can mediate any type of case, but her expertise in probate, guardianships and trusts is unmatched. She is a master at getting the parties to agree even when you think there is no common ground to work with. She is professional, efficient, calm, and a pleasure to work with.”

Attorney Debra Slater

“Peggy Gehl is by far one of the most professional and efficient mediators in the community. She will work hard and make diligent efforts to resolve the matter. I would recommend her services.”

Attorney Monica Sherman

“Peggy Gehl brings the skills, experience, and temperament she exhibited as a judge to her mediation practice. She is efficient, effective, and impartial. I highly recommend Peggy.”

Attorney Jill Ginsberg, Ginsberg Shulman PL

“I utilized Judge Gehl for a Personal Injury Protection mediation. She truly helped us find common ground, and assisted to ultimately resolve the underlying issues. I’d recommend Judge Gehl for future mediations.”

Attorney Barry Aronin, LaBovick, LaBovick & Diaz Law Group

“I am a board certified elder law attorney. My practice consists of estate planning, guardianship and probate litigation and administration. I have had the pleasure of practicing before Senior Judge Peggy Gehl whom I admire for her wisdom, knowledge of the subject matter and fairness. I am excited to learn that she has established a mediation practice. I would not hesitate to refer any of my cases to her for conflict resolution.”

Collett P. Small, ESQ

“Peggy Gehl stands apart from other mediators because of the extraordinary professionalism, legal knowledge, and empathy she brings to her mediation sessions. A client of mine was engaged in a bitter family dispute; Judge Gehl made it her mission to not only reach a legal settlement, but also to bring the family to an emotional reconciliation. My client was comforted by her reassuring demeanor and genuine concern for the fairness and respect of all parties involved. I would recommend Peggy to any of my colleagues.”

Andrew L. Jiménez, Esq.

“Judge Gehl understood the case and worked hard putting the parties together…she didn’t nickel and dime us getting ‘up to speed’.”

Attorney Jerome R. Schechter
