About Michael E.
Michael E. Golub built a legal foundation in Florida that stretches back decades. He earned a Bachelor of Arts in Communications from the University of South Florida in 1982 and a Juris Doctor from Nova Southeastern University in 1987. Those credentials set the stage for a career that combines dispute resolution and courtroom knowledge.
After law school, Golub established a practice centered in Florida. Over time he developed a parallel career as a neutral — serving as a mediator and arbitrator in a variety of matters. He is admitted to practice in Florida and in United States courts, which has allowed him to operate in both state and federal settings when cases require it.
Golub holds multiple official mediator and neutral credentials. He is a Civil Mediator certified by the Supreme Court of Florida and an Appellate Mediator through the Florida Supreme Court. The state has also recognized him as a Residential Foreclosure Mediator and a Qualified Arbitrator. In addition, he is credentialed as a Family Law Mediator by the Florida Supreme Court. Those designations reflect formal training and approval to act as a neutral in distinct procedural contexts.
His work as a mediator and arbitrator spans family law, foreclosure matters and civil disputes. He has accepted appointments from courts and referrals from attorneys seeking an experienced neutral to manage settlement discussions or oversee arbitration hearings. The appellate mediation credential means he has been called on to help parties explore resolution after trial-level determinations, while the residential foreclosure mediator role points to experience with cases involving homeowners, lenders and servicers.
Golub operates from the Law Office of Michael E. Golub P.A., where he provides mediation and arbitration services alongside traditional legal counsel. He regularly works with individual litigants, counsel for parties and court programs that require trained neutrals. His day-to-day practice involves scheduling mediations, conducting neutral evaluations and administering arbitration panels when requested.
Colleagues and clients describe him as pragmatic and procedural in approach, preferring clear rules and structured sessions. He continues to serve as a neutral in matters statewide, handling mediations and arbitrations and providing related legal work through his private practice. His current practice concentrates on mediation, arbitration and related civil matters.
