Highlighting Diverse Voices at JAMS

Learn about some of our diverse mediators and arbitrators at JAMS 

JAMS is continuously pursuing to increase diversity within the JAMS panel. We recognize the benefits of recruiting and retaining the most qualified ADR professionals inclusive of varied ethnicity, race, gender, religion, and sexual orientation. Below are some highlighted diverse neutrals on the JAMS panel. 

We encourage you to partner with us in a collective effort to bring more diversity to ADR by utilizing the Inclusion Clause to increase the selection of diverse neutrals.

Need more information about our diverse panel? Connect with our Director, Diversity Outreach, Joanne Saint Louis.


Diversity encompasses the range of similarities and differences each individual brings to the workplace, including but not limited to race, color, religion, sex, disability, age, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, veteran status, or genetic information, or any other characteristics protected by law.
