mediation cost and payment
Mediation Costs
Compared to the cost of lawyers and protracted court actions, mediation is a cost-effective solution for resolving family disputes. We offer private family law mediations at rates lower than most private mediators.
As a guide, standard mediation session takes between 3 and 4 hours. Shuttle mediations usually take minimum of 4 hours. Some mediation cases take more than one session depending upon the complexity of the matter and the issues in dispute. If further sessions are required, the parties will be charged on hourly basis of $250 per hour per party.
