Stephanie M. Breck offers mediation in employment law and general civil litigation through Cannon Breck — helping parties move past emotional friction toward binding, sustainable settlements.
Mediation is more than just settling legal disputes; it is about guiding human beings through some of the most stressful moments of their lives. While achieving a binding legal resolution is always our ultimate goal, our practice recognizes that emotional obstacles, past distress, and high stress can stall negotiations. We facilitate a structured, confidential space where parties feel heard, respected, and clear-headed enough to make sustainable decisions.

Stephanie's professional trajectory spans over two decades at the intersection of employment law, corporate human resources, and general civil litigation. Stephanie's background provides her with an exceptional understanding of how legal structures and human behaviors collide in high-stakes disputes.
Stephanie's legal career began advising public and private-sector employers at Miller Nash, LLP in Portland, Oregon. Following her big firm stint, Stephanie moved into corporate Human Resources, advising management, training employees and conducting countless workplace investigations for Hollywood Entertainment Corporation and Target Corporation. She later transitioned to representing plaintiffs in civil litigation at Lakeside Law Office in Montana. From 2009 to 2026, Stephanie and her husband Justin owned and operated Breck Law Office, PC in Columbia Falls, Montana, where Stephanie continued to advise business owners and gained over 15 years of general civil litigation experience in a variety of areas, representing both plaintiffs and defendants. Simultaneously, her consulting firm, Maverick Management Solutions, LLC, has provided high-level workplace investigations and mediations to repair organizational health. While Stephanie has had her share of successful trial outcomes, her penchant for negotiating settlements of disputed claims and avoiding trial is what she is most proud of in her legal career.
Stephanie possesses a natural gift for reading people and navigating intense emotional undercurrents. She understands that civil litigation is rarely just about financial targets; they are frequently driven by deep-rooted feelings of betrayal, sudden loss, or organizational trauma.
Stephanie's mediation practice focuses exclusively on employment law disputes and general civil litigation (excluding family law). In 2025, she earned a certificate in Traumatic Stress Studies from the world-renowned Trauma Research Foundation. Stephanie's unique advantage is her extensive background in handling litigation for both plaintiff and defense, coupled with a deep understanding of trauma and its effects on individuals, corporations and the legal system as a whole.

Our mediation practice focuses exclusively on employment law and general civil litigation. We do not accept family law matters. Cannon Breck's current office space does not allow for multi-party in-person mediation; in-person sessions require a suitable location provided by the parties.
