Rates & Fees

All scheduled mediations will have a two-hour minimum. There will be an additional $50 per hour rate charged on weekends and holidays and mediation time extending past 7:00 p.m.

Each Party will be expected to pay one-half of the mediation fee at the conclusion of the mediation unless there is a court order or written agreement outlining a different pay schedule.

Additional time for preparation and review of documents charged at the normal hourly rate.

Non-refundable Scheduling Fee: All mediations will require a non-refundable scheduling fee in the amount of $900 in order to reserve a date. This amount applies to the two-hour minimum and will be credited against the fee owed at the conclusion of the mediation.

The non-refundable scheduling fee must be paid in full (check, MasterCard, Visa or American Express) within five (5) business days of scheduling the case in order to remain on the calendar. One reminder notice will be sent prior to a scheduled case being removed from the calendar for failure to pay this fee.

Should you find the need to reschedule your mediation; the non-refundable scheduling fee will be credited to the new date without penalty, one time per case within a 12-month period. Upon a second reschedule of the same case, the parties will forfeit the scheduling fee and must pay a new fee.

A confirmation letter will be sent upon receipt of the full $900 scheduling fee.

Travel: There is no cost for travel to counties contiguous to Hillsborough County. A fee of $100 per hour will be charged for travel to non-contiguous counties.
