Todd is a Distinguished Fellow of the International Academy of Mediators and a member of the National Academy of Distinguished Neutrals. He has received mediation training on both coasts — including Pepperdine’s Straus Institute for Dispute Resolution on the West and Linda Singer and Michael Lewis on the East. He was the former co-chair of both the San Fernando Valley Bar Association ADR Section and Beverly Hills Bar Association Labor and Employment Law Section.

In addition to his mediation practice, Todd has served as an Adjunct professor in Southern California for over 20 years. He has taught employment law at both Southwestern Law School and UCLA Law School. Currently, he is teaching Employment Dispute Mediation at USC’s Gould School of Law, a course he designed specifically for their ADR program. One of Todd’s greatest pleasures is to work with former students. Todd is also a frequent speaker and enthusiastic supporter of Mediation.
