Before establishing Neiman Mediation in 2004, he served as CEO and General Counsel of a FINRA-registered broker-dealer, working closely with buy side firms, other sell side firms and public issuers, and managing all corporate finance activity as well as overseeing legal and regulatory compliance.

Phil is routinely praised by counsel for earnestly engaging in the mediation process, bringing a dose of calm to emotionally charged conversations and keeping the settlement discussions moving forward. We know he will make a great addition to our panel.
