Richard (Dick) M. Stanton 312-218-3962
Arbitrator & Mediator
Dick Stanton
Dick Stanton was an employment lawyer for over 30
years and is now a full-time arbitrator and mediator.
During his career as a practicing attorney, he appeared
regularly in administrative proceedings, state and federal
courts, representing plaintiffs, defendants, employers and
unions. In addition, he has participated in countless
arbitrations and mediations as an advocate.
During his career as an employment lawyer, Dick has
encouraged settlement as the best resolution for the
client. As a practical matter, the vast majority of cases do
settle, it is only a question of when and on what terms.
However, he also recognizes that in some situations in
labor relations, parties need a decision and; therefore,
mediation is not appropriate. Having been a practicing
employment lawyer for many years, Dick recognizes the
difference and acts accordingly.
