Mr. Cino has been appointed to the Employment Law Arbitration and Mediation Panels for the American Arbitration Association.

Mr. Cino has served as a mediator in numerous employment law matters.  Despite his prominent position as a management attorney, Mr. Cino’s mediation skills have been sought by plaintiffs’ lawyers due to his recognized reputation for fairness and objectivity.  Mr. Cino’s ability to focus on the relative strengths and weaknesses of a matter as well as his view of the value of a case has led to a near perfect record of successful resolutions.
