Nance Schick

I am a NYC-based attorney and mediator who focuses on resolving small business and employment conflicts. My goal is to keep clients out of court (whenever feasible) and build their conflict resolution skills, so they can focus their time, money, and energy on creating the lives they want. I also provide conflict resolution coaching, continuing education, and diversity training--in-person and online.
