Judicate West
Throughout her 21-year tenure, which covers all areas of the law except capital crimes, Judge Monica Bachner has always liked to look for ways to resolve disputes and she makes that the center point of her informal discovery conferences.
When she sees that attorneys are working together, “they are advocating for their clients but at the same time they are not overly zealous and they are able to resolve issues.”
