Our Heritage:
Hon. Lawrence Kaplan
Judge Kaplan is known for his commitment to the principle that giving the parties an opportunity to resolve their own disputes would improve the quality of dispute resolution and justice in family courts. Judge Kaplan championed the practice of mediation in Allegheny County since the early 1980s and he established the Family Mediation Council, one of the first organizations in Allegheny County dedicated to advancing the use of mediation, which ultimately became the MCWP. In addition to his distinguished career on the bench, Judge Kaplan held leadership positions in many organizations, among them the Pennsylvania Bar Association, and the Association of Family and Conciliation Courts.
