"Victoria Pynchon's negotiation skills crush cultural bias, gender barriers and even fears about the tumultuous economy. She taught me to conquer my fears with courage and navigate contentious negotiation, while demanding my market value.  Her one-on-one supportive coaching techniques trump transformation. Working with her has triggered a personal evolutionary spiral into a new way of doing business with confidence, the fruits of which have knocked down walls in every part of my life. I felt supported through the entire process and experienced immediate results."
Judy Martin, Business Journalist

 

"Thank you very much for your assistance in our mediation last month.  Before we met with you, the parties had already gone through a mediation, an administrative hearing, and an appeal, with no end to the litigation in sight.  Your creative approaches and problem-solving skills were instrumental in helping the parties find common ground to resolve their dispute."

More Abut Victoria

After a lifetime’s use of the legal weapons of mass destruction (litigation and trial) Victoria Pynchon finally stumbled upon the better way—consensual, negotiated, interest-based dispute resolution. Now, instead of bombing her adversaries back into the stone age, she helps the attorneys with and against whom she once fought, find mutually agreeable ways of resolving disputes that have languished for years (and sometimes decades) in California’s state and federal courts. Perhaps the most surprising revelation of her new career as a mediator and negotiation trainer is that women are already negotiating in the way modern academics and Fortune 500 CEOs are learning for the first time.

Though Victoria primarily helps lawyers, executives and managers negotiate better deals than they could achieve in a court of law, she also consults privately with women on their specific negotiation challenges. In addition, she volunteers her time at a local community mediation center helping ordinary people resolve the problems of everyday life, including barking dogs, partying neighbors, intrusive landlords and former spouses. Much of the experience she has gained helping people negotiate their business and personal disputes will be found in her new book from Janis Publications – A is for Asshole, the Grownups' ABCs of Conflict Resolution.
