Randell C. Stoney, Jr.

Throughout his distinguished career, Randell Stoney dedicated his practice to premises and product liability, construction law and litigation, and general liability defense. After decades of success as a prosecutor and civil defense litigator, Randell now focuses on mediation. His tremendous trial experience affords him a highly nuanced view and allows him to stay neutral successfully. He finds great reward and satisfaction in helping litigants work through the issues of their lawsuits and achieve resolutions, which they, and not a jury, accomplish together. Randell has been a certified mediator and arbitrator for 25 years.
