About the mediator
Santosh Narayan
A litigation background spanning insurance defense and plaintiff-side advocacy.
A perspective informed by both sides
Santosh Narayan is the founder of Narayan Law. Before establishing his plaintiff-side practice, he spent years representing insurance companies. His professional background includes personal injury and employment litigation.
His work as counsel has involved evaluating liability, damages, and the practical risks of taking a dispute to trial. In mediation, that background is relevant to understanding the different considerations counsel and parties bring to settlement discussions.
As a neutral mediator, Santosh’s role is distinct from his advocacy work: to facilitate discussion, not to represent either side. Participation does not guarantee settlement.
