Is mediation expensive?

This depends on the issues involved, the length of the mediation and the hourly rate charged by the mediator. The cost can range from $150.00 per hour to $500.00 or more. Mediators who are retired or former judges tend to charge more and their insights from years on the bench may validate the additional cost. A typical divorce without a custody dispute can usually be resolved in one eight hour session or less. The costs may seem high but the cost of a trial coupled with the uncertainty of the outcome mitigate in favor of mediation.
