With over two decades on the bench, Hon. Glen M. Ashworth (Ret.) brings a balanced approach to mediation and arbitration. While he primarily employs a facilitative style, he knows when to take an evaluative stance to help parties move forward. He has extensive experience in the resolution of complex, multiparty disputes in all areas of civil litigation, including catastrophic injury cases, business divorces, oil and gas matters, employment law disputes and sports-related issues.

Judge Ashworth’s greatest strength lies in his persistence. By fostering open dialogue and recognizing the human elements in every case, he strives to deliver resolutions that are not only legally sound, but also meaningful for those involved.

“It’s always been my philosophy to let the lawyers try their own lawsuit … Obviously, it’s critical to listen carefully. And when I render an award, it’s my goal to make a ruling that reflects that each of the parties’ positions has been considered.”

His dedication to fairness and his ability to guide negotiations with both authority and compassion set him apart in the field of ADR.
