Initial consultations are free of charge.

In an electronic (zoom) mediation conference, the hourly rate is $300 per hour, with a two hour minimum fee of $600. The parties determine the allocation of fees.

In every circumstance, (a) the mediator fee shall be prepaid or guaranteed by legal counsel and (b) the total amount or unpaid balance of the mediator fee is due and payable upon completion of the conference.

This fee structure is subject to change without notice.

The parties shall receive written notice of the fee structure and conditions prior to the mediation conference.
