Jill Nexon Berman has more than 40 years of experience in commercial, construction, real estate and intellectual property litigation. While in active practice, she was Board certified by The Florida Bar as a specialist in Business Litigation for many years. Ms. Berman is AV rated by Martindale-Hubbell. She is also a Certified Civil Mediator, a Certified Family Mediator, and Southern District of Florida Certified Mediator.

Ms. Berman is a member of the Miami-Dade County Bar Association, The Florida Bar, and the Florida Association for Women Lawyers. She is also admitted to all federal courts in Florida.

Ms. Berman takes a proactive approach to the process of mediation, rather than engaging in "shuttle diplomacy," while still allowing the parties to control their own destinies. She added mediation to her law practice because so few experienced business lawyers have become mediators. While her emphasis is on business disputes, she also mediates family and injury cases.  Now retired from law practice, her schedule is entirely focused on helping clients resolve conflicts.
