About Me
Dawn Lane

At Lane Mediation, we specialize in resolving disputes with a focus on workers' compensation and personal injury. With over 25 years of practice in law, I have the experience and expertise to effectively mediate cases. I have worked as both a plaintiff and defense attorney, giving me a unique perspective on both sides of the court. I have been successfully mediating cases since 2007.
My goal is to come to an agreement that is beneficial to both parties. I am committed to providing a safe and respectful environment for all involved. If you are looking for the best possible outcome for your dispute, contact Lane Mediation today.
