UWWM Principal Lawrence M. (Larry) Watson
MAITLAND, Fla. (July 1o, 2015) - One of the first circuit civil trial mediators to be certified by Florida's Supreme Court,
Lawrence M. Watson Jr. not only does, but also teaches. On Tuesday, he will present a session titled "Planning, Organizing, Formatting and Executing the Mediation of a Complex, Multi‐Party, Multi‐Issue Lawsuit” to the American College of Civil Trial Mediators' annual meeting in Dana Point, Calif.
"We will lay out a 'typical' complex litigation dispute – then walk through ways we might organize and structure a mediation of that case," says Mr. Watson, a founding principal of Upchurch Watson White & Max Mediation Group. He has chosen a hypothetical case based on a construction lawsuit for his presentation because those tend to be multi-party, multi-issue, complex cases and because "I was a construction litigator and now am heavily involved in mediation of construction cases – it's familiar ground."
The annual meeting marks the ACCTM's 20th anniversary. Mr. Watson was a founding fellow of the college and received its lifetime achievement award in 2005. For more information, please visit
