Biographical

Douglas A. Glass is a mediator in San Diego, California, and devotes his entire professional practice exclusively to mediations. In September 2021, Doug joined Signature Resolution's mediation panel.  Since becoming a full-time mediator in 2001, Doug has mediated over 4,300 cases establishing him as one of the most trusted, experienced and popular mediators in California and the United States. In 2017, Best Lawyers in America named Doug as the "Lawyer of the Year" for Mediation in San Diego.  The Daily Journal recognized Doug as one of the "Top 50 Neutrals" in California in 2013.  He has been listed in The Best Lawyers in America every year since 2008 in the category of Mediation.  

Between 1982 and 2001, Doug was a civil trial attorney with an emphasis on real estate, personal injury, and construction defect litigation. He primarily represented plaintiffs, but developed an expertise in defending home inspectors and, as a result, did a significant amount of insurance defense work for construction and design professionals. Doug tried over 100 cases during his career and in 1997 was honored by the Consumer Attorneys of San Diego with an Outstanding Trial Lawyer Award. In 2001, he was recognized by the California Real Estate Inspection Association as one of the twenty-five most influential individuals in the twenty-five year history of CREIA.
