Texas Bar Card #10199300
Cecilia H. Morgan, an ADR professional, has been associated with JAMS since March, 1994. Ms. Morgan's private law practice consisted of representation of private parties in complex business litigation in both state and federal courts beginning in 1977. Since 1991, she has mediated numerous employment cases with a keen appreciation of the volatility of these emotional and hotly contested disputes. Given her understanding of the statutory and common law framework, Ms. Morgan assists the parties in devising creative solutions while recognizing the competing interests of employers and employees. Mediation, with her, holds the potential for an efficient, private, harmonious and economic resolution of a broad range of grievances.
Ms. Morgan mediated cases generated by the EEOC as part of the 1999 Pilot Program. She was selected in 1995 as one of 75 professional mediators nationwide to participate in a pilot program funded by the United States Department of Justice for mediating Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) disputes.
Ms. Morgan actively participates in the Labor and Employment Law Section of the Dallas Bar Association. She served as Vice Chair of its council in 2010 and as Chair in 2011. In 2004, Ms. Morgan spoke at the Symposium at the Texas Wesleyan School of Law and authored a law review article entitled Employment Dispute Resolution Processes 2004 (11 Tex. Wesleyan L. Rev., Symposium Problem Solving Processes: Peacemakers and the Law [2004]). In 1998, she chaired an Employment ADR program for the Dallas Bar and in 2002 chaired an Employment ADR program for the State Bar of Texas ADR Section at their annual conference. She regularly speaks at and teaches classes regarding nuances of employment mediation and arbitration.
