Mesa is Home to Judge Lynn Toler

You’ve probably heard of the famous Judge Lynn Toler. If not, she is an American Lawyer, judge, and television arbitrator. She is widely known for her outstanding role in the longest-running courtroom television series, Divorce Court. 

Before she became a television star, Toler served as the only Municipal judge in Cleveland Heights for eight years after working as a civil attorney in cases involving misdemeanor crimes, traffic, and small claims civil cases. Additionally, she served as a fair, competent, and caring arbitrator judge for the Divorce Court series from September 2006 to March 2020. Toler has lived in Mesa, Arizona, for several years, and she said in an interview that she loves the town because she can live quietly and anonymously.  

The Sorenson Law Firm specializes in Alternative Dispute Resolutions (ADR), such as mediation and arbitration. The arbitration proceedings we engage in are relatively similar to Lynn Toler’s Divorce Court role. Our Attorneys have received excellent training on how to provide ADR services effectively. 

For instance, our attorney, J. Sorenson, provides ADR services as a Pro Tem Settlement Judge for the Maricopa County Superior Court and a third-party neutral private arbitrator and mediator. Get in touch with us for all your ADR needs and a free consultation on your litigation case.
