ABOUT JUDGE PURI

Judge Vedica Puri (Ret.) brings distinct energy, rigor, and clarity to complex civil disputes. Over the course of a legal career spanning more than three decades, she has served as a trial lawyer, a partner in private practice, and a San Francisco Superior Court judge—experience that places her among the few neutrals who have sat in every seat that matters when cases are evaluated, tried, and resolved.

 

Before her judicial appointment, Judge Puri built a formidable litigation and trial practice representing both plaintiffs and defendants in high-stakes matters, with particular depth in insurance coverage and bad faith disputes. She tried dozens of jury and bench trials across a wide range of civil disciplines, gaining first-hand insight into how cases actually unfold in the courtroom—and how juries truly respond to evidence, credibility, and risk. That trial grounding continues to define her work as a neutral.

AREAS OF EXPERTISE

Judge Puri leverages her extensive litigation and judicial background to guide parties toward resolution in diverse civil matters.

CLIENT TESTIMONIAL

  “She is the best mediator I have had to date. Her follow-up is amazing. Even though we did not settle during the 1st day of mediation, it was her consistent follow-up that nudged the parties to agree to a second session.”
