Biography

Randy Finch is relied on by business owners, C-suite executives, and in-house counsel for his unique ability to see the big picture, and to get the job done efficiently and with predicted results.  His expertise includes dispute resolution from early positioning and negotiation, to mediation, arbitration, trial, and appeal, as well as business planning and compliance.  He is known for unabashedly telling clients what he would do in their situation (guided by 30 years of experience in all facets of the construciton industry), rather than simply offering the pros and cons of options from which the client must choose.
