Praise for
Arbitrator Sperow
“I have had the great pleasure of working closely with Janice as a wing arbitrator on a lengthy, complex healthcare matter in which she served as the Chair of our Panel. Janice is highly organized, well-prepared, extremely bright, and grasps issues quickly. She provides exactly the type of leadership a panel needs for a complex arbitration. She listens to and implements the suggestions of her panel members, engages in the exchange of ideas and educates us along the way. She is also the hardest-working Chair I have ever encountered. I cannot recommend her strongly enough.”
