PRICING ESTIMATES

Step 1: Pre-Mediation Meeting

We start with an individual pre-mediation meeting, where I meet with you, alone, to discuss your situation from your perspective and review any concerns you may have prior to meeting in our joint mediation session.

In our pre-mediation meeting, I am assessing if mediation will be efficient, effective and supportive for each of you. I want to understand the details of your family so that I can make sure I'm helping in the best way. I will review the process and next steps with you and give you some recommendations to ensure the joint session. Having regard to your circumstances, we will also talk about which of the mediations below will best meet your needs.

$300/person (plus tax)

Step 2: Prepare for and Attend Mediation

Once your pre-mediation is complete, we will book a mediation. The length and cost of your mediation depends on what matters you and your spouse need to resolve. I have the three most common types of discussions laid out below.

Step 3: Drafting the Separation Agreement

Once your mediation is complete, I prepare your agreement for you. I draft a standard legal Separation Agreement using common, easy to understand language to minimize confusion and disagreements after mediation. I also use neutral language, so that the wording does not favour one party over another.

You will receive a copy of the Agreement in Microsoft Word format so that you may make agreed upon changes to the document easily and quickly. I will also send you copies of all schedules, calculations, and spreadsheets we use in mediation so that you may review all the information with a lawyer before you sign the agreement.
