Douglas E. Noll earned a bachelor’s degree from Dartmouth College, a law degree from University of Pacific McGeorge School of Law and a master’s degree in Peacemaking and Conflict Studies from Fresno Pacific University.
In 2000, Noll left a successful career as a business and commercial trial lawyer to become a peacemaker. With a calling to serve humanity, Noll’s work carries him around the world helping people resolve deep interpersonal and ideological conflicts.
Noll has earned a reputation as a successful author, teacher, trainer and mediator. He also teaches a graduate course called Decision-Making Under Uncertainty and Conflict at Pepperdine University Caruso School of Law.
When he’s not running his award-winning mediation and arbitration practice, Doug Noll stays busy lending his expertise to various publications, nonprofits and community organizations.
We asked Noll to flex his legal expertise by answering a few questions on financing for business owners.
“They don’t seek out credit lines when they are making money. The best time to seek financing is when you do not need it.”
“Consult a good business lawyer and tax and business accountant. The cost of a consultation might be $2,500 or more, but it will save you much more in the long run.”
“Managing and motivating staff is different and perhaps more challenging. Teaching employees how to be disciplined while working from home should be a priority.”
