Common Challenges in Class Action & PAGA Mediation — And How Alireza Helps

Early-Stage Mediation with Incomplete Data

Mediation often occurs early to reduce defense costs—but missing data can derail resolution. Alireza helps parties clarify assumptions, explore contingencies, and structure conditional settlement terms.

Court Approval Risk & Settlement Rejection

Courts must approve Class and PAGA settlements. Alireza’s familiarity with judicial guidelines helps craft deals that courts are more likely to approve, reducing delays and objections.

Absent Party & Overlapping Claims Issues

In Class/PAGA cases, other parties may assert similar claims later. Alireza helps anticipate and address these risks in the release language and negotiation scope.

Allocation, Taxation, and Settlement Structure

From tax allocation to release specificity and long implementation timelines, Alireza’s guidance ensures the deal is thorough, durable, and properly documented.

Follow-Up & Ongoing Engagement

When cases require more than one session or continued dialogue, Alireza is known for his tenacity and persistence in helping parties close the gap and finalize settlements.

Mediation That Moves the Needle

Alireza offers:

  • Virtual & in-person mediation options

  • Flexible scheduling for high-volume counsel

  • Transparent flat-fee pricing

  • Post-session follow-ups until final resolution
