FEES
Mediation usually is charged at a lower rate than attorneys fees, and the cost is usually equally shared.
I have both parties sign an Agreement to Mediate before we start mediation, along with the fee agreement I use. You can, if you wish, modify who pays what portion of this fee agreement, but I will bring my standard language forms to the session, and we will make any changes at that time.
I do not make any charge for mileage or travel time Southern Minnesota within a 50 mile radius of Mankato. You must pay the full amount on the day of mediation.
If there are multiple sessions, I charge a fee to cover my administrative time, which involves drafting of memorandums of our session, letters, reviewing the files, and contact with the parties or their agents and/or their attorneys by telephone, email , conferences or any other way.
