Gregory G. Thiess

I provide mediation services to parties in litigation and non-litigation disputes, to help them achieve mutually agreed settlements of their disputes.

With a background as General Counsel and lead Litigation Counsel for several major companies, and more recently as an Attorney Magistrate for the 86th District Court, I now focus my practice on mediation of civil disputes and Elder/Adult Guardianship mediations. During my in-house practice and as a mediator, I have mediated commercial, contract, product liability, personal injury, real estate, labor, employment, elder/adult guardianship and other complex civil cases. As an Attorney Magistrate, I also heard Small Claims cases, and conducted Landlord/Tenant Pretrials for the 86th District Court.

I also volunteer as a mediator for Conflict Resolution Services in Traverse City, and Northern Community Mediation in Petoskey, and I am listed on the civil mediator lists for Michigan’s 13th, 28th, 33rd and 46th Circuit Courts.

I conduct both in person and virtual mediations, and mediations using the Michigan on-line "MI-Resolve" dispute resolution program. I am a member of the Michigan and Illinois Bar Associations.
