DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (August 2, 2017) —
Scott Baughan, a 25-year civil litigator and native and resident of Brevard County, Fla.,
has joined Upchurch Watson White & Max’s panel of dispute resolution
professionals.
Just prior to becoming a full-time mediator at the end of July, Mr. Baughan
was a partner with Moore Eavenson Baughan PLC, also in Brevard. His career
experience comprises many hundreds of litigated matters, including numerous
jury trials, arbitrations and appellate proceedings as lead counsel. He also
has represented both plaintiff and defendant in hundreds of mediations for
tort cases ranging from death and catastrophic injury to soft tissue injury,
with a heavy concentration in medical malpractice cases. He also counts
numerous employment, federal civil rights, insurance disputes, complex
commercial and construction cases — including specialized health care related
litigation — among the matters he has handled. Those also
include anti-trust and billing disputes and practitioner credentialing
issues.
“We are extremely pleased to welcome Scott to our panel. His
distinguished legal career, including many years of experience as an
occasional mediator, speaks for itself. Moreover, his even temperament and
sensitivity to both attorney and client interests are important qualities for
effective mediation. We are honored that he chose to join our ranks,”
said Terrence M. “Terry” White, a founding principal of the firm.
Mr. Baughan was certified by the Florida Supreme Court as a circuit civil
mediator in 2005 and looks forward to a rapid expansion in his dispute
resolution practice. He plans to offer his services throughout the state, in
keeping with the practice of many of his fellow Upchurch Watson White &
Max mediators.
“I believe that I have the background necessary to be effective in bringing
parties together to reach settlement,” he said. “I know exactly what it feels
like to be in either camp,” plaintiff or defendant.
