Signature Resolution Welcomes Hon. Suzanne DelVecchio (Ret.) to Our Panel of Neutrals

Former Chief Justice of the Massachusetts Superior Court brings institutional command, frank expectation management, and two decades of mediation practice to complex dispute resolution.

BOSTON, July 3, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Signature Resolution is proud to announce that Hon. Suzanne DelVecchio (Ret.) has joined its panel of neutrals, where she will serve as a mediator and arbitrator specializing in complex business, employment, and civil matters, including personal injury, wrongful death, and medical malpractice. A former Chief Justice of the Massachusetts Superior Court and one of the most experienced neutrals in the New England legal community, Judge DelVecchio brings to every dispute a thorough command of how courts evaluate cases, a preparation-first approach that sets the terms for honest conversation, and the kind of direct, steady presence that keeps parties moving when the work gets difficult.

Judge DelVecchio approaches the mediation table with a belief that court is among the worst things that can happen to a person, and that conviction shapes how she works: she brings patience and graciousness to every room, de-escalating before the process formally begins, and giving litigants the space to feel heard before the harder conversations start. She is equally direct when directness is required. She does not shy from telling parties what their case is likely worth to a jury, framing it not as her opinion but as the reality they would face in court, and she does so with the authority of someone who has watched those juries return those verdicts. That combination of warmth and frankness is what keeps parties at the table and what has produced her settlement record.

Before entering private dispute resolution, Judge DelVecchio served on the Massachusetts Superior Court, beginning in 1985 as an Associate Justice, presiding over both civil and criminal matters. In 1999, she ascended to the role of Chief Justice, a position she held until 2004. While at the helm of the Superior Court, she launched the Business Litigation Session, a dedicated commercial docket that expanded from a county pilot into a successful statewide program. In another move to make the court more responsive to people and the business community under her leadership, Judge DelVecchio established a pro se mediation program, securing legislative funding to deploy mediators across Massachusetts so that self-represented litigants had meaningful access to resolution. Before her appointment to the bench, she spent a decade as Assistant Corporation Counsel for the City of Boston and went on to co-found her own litigation firm.

“Judge DelVecchio has spent her career building the kind of credibility that makes a genuine difference in the mediation room,” said Dario Higuchi, founder and Chief Executive Officer of Signature Resolution. “We are excited to welcome her to Signature Resolution.”

Judge DelVecchio has received the Distinguished Jurist Award from the Massachusetts Association of Women Lawyers and the Essex County Bar Association, the Judicial Merit Award from the Massachusetts Academy of Trial Lawyers, and honorary Doctors of Law from Suffolk University School of Law and New England School of Law. She served as President of the Massachusetts Association of Women Lawyers and as an Adjunct Professor at Boston University School of Law, where she taught trial practice from 1993 until 2012.

Judge DelVecchio earned her Juris Doctor from Boston College Law School and her Bachelor of Arts from Wheaton College.

Plumbing Expert Joe Prestia Explains Why a Heating System May Stop Working During Cold Weather in HelloNation

Published

The article outlines how boiler, furnace, and thermostat issues can disrupt hot water and heat circulation in the home.

YORKTOWN, N.Y., Aug. 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Why is the heating system not working when the house feels freezing? HelloNation has published the answer in an article featuring insights from Joe Prestia of Pipe Wizard in Yorktown, New York.

The HelloNation article explains that when a heating system fails, the cause is not always obvious. While many homeowners assume the thermostat is the problem, issues with a boiler, furnace, or circulating pipes may be preventing heat from reaching the home. Identifying the source early helps restore comfort and prevent more costly repairs.

The first step highlighted in the article is checking the thermostat. Ensuring it is set to heat, adjusted to the correct temperature, and receiving power can sometimes resolve the issue quickly. Homeowners are also encouraged to confirm that the heating system has not lost power at the breaker or emergency switch.

For homes with a boiler, low water pressure or trapped air can interrupt circulation. A boiler depends on proper pressure to move hot water through radiators or baseboard piping. Air pockets in pipes may block flow, causing uneven heating or cold rooms. Monitoring pressure levels and bleeding radiators are practical maintenance steps that support reliable performance.

Furnace-related issues are also discussed in the article. Dirty filters, faulty ignition components, or malfunctioning burners can prevent warm air from circulating effectively. Clogged filters restrict airflow, strain the furnace, and reduce efficiency. Routine maintenance and filter replacement help maintain steady heat and extend system life.

The article also notes that frozen pipes and blocked vents can reduce heating efficiency. In colder climates, water inside pipes may freeze, preventing proper circulation. Furniture or debris blocking vents can restrict airflow, making rooms feel colder than they should. Checking vents and ensuring clear airflow supports overall heating system performance.

Unusual noises such as banging, clanking, or whistling may signal deeper problems. These sounds can indicate mechanical failure, trapped air, or circulation pump issues within the boiler or furnace system. Ignoring these warning signs may lead to more serious breakdowns.

Professional inspection is presented as the most reliable way to diagnose heating system concerns. Technicians evaluate boilers, furnaces, thermostats, and pipes while measuring pressure and airflow. Early diagnosis prevents minor problems from escalating into emergency situations during extreme cold.

Preventive maintenance is emphasized throughout the HelloNation article. Replacing filters regularly, monitoring boiler pressure, checking the thermostat, and scheduling annual inspections all help maintain a dependable supply of hot water and warm air. Consistent maintenance improves efficiency and reduces the risk of unexpected failure.

The article concludes that heating issues can stem from multiple causes, including thermostat settings, low boiler pressure, clogged furnace components, frozen pipes, or circulation problems. By recognizing early warning signs and scheduling timely maintenance, homeowners can keep their heating system operating safely and efficiently throughout the coldest months.
