failure is not an option

Mr. Garjian has tried many cases to successful verdicts over the years. Being cognizant of the costs and other issues involved, he has become a champion and vigorous proponent of alternate dispute resolution (“ADR”) – i.e. mediation and arbitration. Mr. Garjian has undergone extensive training as a mediator and as an arbitrator by well respected leaders in the ADR field. He has mediated well over 3500 cases. He has served as a mediator for the parties in commercial and contract litigation, divorce, employment law litigation (wrongful termination, discrimination, Title 9 etc.), and estate disputes. Since 2009, he was selected and has continued to serve as a FINRA arbitrator and is now classified as a “non-public” arbitrator because of his history as a former employee of the predecessor in interest to Morgan Stanley Smith Barney.

Mr. Garjian was selected as a Part 36 Panelist pursuant to the Rules of the Chief Judge in New York and is listed on the panel for Article 81 Guardianships. He was a Director of the New Jersey State Bar Association Alternate Dispute Resolution Section through summer of 2020 and is an active member of the New York City Bar Association, the New York State Bar Association, and the Association of Conflict Resolution of Greater New York (“ACR-GNY”).

Mr. Garjian has a history of community involvement as well. He served as Borough Councilman for fourteen years and was Commissioner of the Department of Public Works (“DPW”) during his tenure. He also was appointed Insurance Commissioner for many years and the Board of Education liaison to the borough council.
