Fees set by agreement. First, we get some background information at no cost. At no cost, I review background documents as necessary. If you have an attorney, I’d love to speak with them. As you prefer, when we mutually agree to mediate then we formalize our Mediation agreement. Depending on what you need, we can work by the hour or in blocks of time…Let’s chat.
For most mediations
- I am extremely comfortable Mediating under crisis timelines and can usually meet short-suspense timelines.
- Rates are divided among the parties. (Mediator rates in the US tend to range from $170 – $250 per hour)
- Block 4-hours at $700 per 4-hour interval.
- A two hour cancellation fee of $125 is charged for mediations cancelled less than 5 days before the date of the scheduled conference. Rescheduling a session does not incur a cancellation fee. Let’s try to avoid that. My favorite word starting with the letter “F” is ‘flexible’. Let’s be flexible. The desired end state is that you are fully supported.
- Expenses such as conference room rental and courier(FedEx, UPS, USPS etc.) charges are billed at actual cost. It shouldn’t come to that. We can mediate anywhere as long as both parties feel comfortable. I have mediated at courthouses, libraries, public parks and private homes.
- Pro Se uncontested divorce averages $3000 or less and is usually completed in around 91-days. We have wiggle room here.
- For military, on a case-by-case basis there may be methods that enable deployed service members the ability to complete most divorce and family related mediations and actions. Let’s talk.
