Costs for mediation are significantly less than hiring an attorney to represent them in a divorce without using mediation and accruing court cost and fees.
The fee for the initial mediation session, which may last up to three hours, is $450.00. This is traditionally a shared cost between the spouses or divorcing parents.
A $50.00 non-refundable deposit is required at the time of scheduling the initial mediation session and will be applied to the total balance.
The remaining fee is required to be paid prior to the start of the initial mediation session. These fees also covers the writing time to prepare the Memorandum of Understanding also known as mediation agreement.
Is not uncommon for more than one session to be needed resolve multiple issues. all additional mediation sessions are $150.00/hour for the actual time involved, thus $75.00/hour for each spouse or separating parent.
*Mediation is not a service that is reimbursable by a health insurance plan and is not considered therapy or counseling services and therefore cannot be submitted for reimbursement by employer based insurance, employee assistances plans, or health savings accounts.
Multiple forms of payment are accepted
