Biography |
Hon. Shira A. Scheindlin was appointed by President Bill Clinton as a Federal Judge of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and served for 22 years. Judge Scheindlin also served in the mid-70s as Chief Administrative United States Attorney and Deputy Chief of the Economic Crimes Unit in the United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York. She left to become the General Counsel of an agency of the City of New York. She then returned to that Court as a Magistrate Judge for five years, followed by eight years in practice as a partner at two large New York City law firms representing clients in commercial litigation and products liability cases, in both state and federal court.
Her experience acquired in over four decades of private practice and on the bench makes her exceptionally well-qualified to assist parties and their counsel in resolving disputes through arbitration or mediation. |
