GENERAL OVERVIEW
Ronnie has a BSCE degree from the University of Houston and has been in the business of "being in business" for over thirty-five years. Ronnie has formed, operated and sold multiple corporations and related entities including a $6,000,000.00 Employee Stock Option Plan (ESOP).
These entities have been active in home remodeling, fabrication and construction of multi-million dollar petro-chemical components, commercial and residential real estate brokerage, commercial and personal insurance brokerage, plus developing for his own account, warehouses and storage facilities.
Ronnie became a mediator/arbitrator as a result of needing a mediator for a commercial dispute. He realized that he could have done a better job not only for himself but also for others needing mediation or arbitration.
Ronnie has mediated hundreds of civil disputes in addition to family and CPS cases. Ronnie was awarded the "Meritorious Service Award" as a mediator. Ronnie has the ability to achieve a settlement between the parties due to his method of accepting only the facts, with opinions left to the parties. He is accustomed to difficult and complex cases including contentious parties. Arbitration, with its finding of facts and resultant conclusion by the Arbitrator, is not difficult for Ronnie.
