  • Mediation typically takes less time and costs less money than litigation. RMG’s pledges to offer incomparable service, responsiveness, and competitive fees.

    Prior to Mediation, a Participant will receive a detailed Fee Schedule for review and signature.

    The Base Rate for simple mediation starts at $100/party/hour with a 2hr minimum.

    More complex cases requiring at least ½ day (4+ hours) will be customized as a flat fee or daily rate.

    Charges may also be negotiated based on # of parties involved or financial need.

    Participants are typically charged jointly (50/50) for the Mediator’s fees and other expenses (copying, postage, court filing fee, mileage, etc.), unless stipulated otherwise in a mediated agreement.

    Scheduled Mediations cancelled without 48-hours’ notice may incur a $50.00 cancellation fee.

    Additional RMG member(s) may be recommended to assist in Mediation. Participants shall be billed for the time expended by any such persons, to the extent and at a rate agreed upon in advance by the parties.

    Payment is due upon completion of a mediated settlement, but no later than 15 days following the date of such billing.

  • The vast majority of Mediations result in a settlement with a signed Mediated Agreement or Memorandum of Understanding stating terms and conditions, which all participants have agreed to.

    If a resolution is not reached (aka - Impasse), you've probably learned a lot about how the other party sees the problem and you still have the option of resolving the issues at a later date.

  • In legal terms, Mediation is a simpler name for Alternative Dispute Resolution and can best be characterized as joint-problem-solving with creative, flexible solutions.

    Before a Mediation session begins, RMG will meet with both parties via phone or in-person to answer questions and review the rules of mediation, issues of confidentiality and your rights. You are free to bring an attorney, or other professional, of your choice at any point in the process.

    If you decide Mediation is the best option for you, we will schedule a mediation session at the end of your first meeting. You will receive a small packet of documents to complete before your Mediation session.

    To optimize outcomes, all parties must come to the Mediation table with an open mind, in good faith, and the authority to negotiate AND authorize settlement.

    Mediation is an efficient, cost-effective, and calm process where people with adversarial views work together in the presence of a trained Mediator, or Neutral. The Mediator pledges to be impartial, avoid any potential conflict of interest, not dispense legal advice, maintain confidentiality, and facilitate dialogue between the parties in an effort of reaching a mutually beneficial resolution with terms and conditions everyone can agree on. Upon doing so – each party signs a Settlement Agreement.

    If an agreement is not achieved (aka Impasse) then the parties may agree to arbitration, delaying discussion to a future date, or litigation.

    The nature or complexity of the case may warrant a lawyer, or another special “Advisor” acting as a Mediator.

    Mediation typically takes one or two sessions of 2-4 hours each.

    Both parties meet with the Mediator in a conference room (aka Peace Room). Or, parties may be in separate rooms and the Mediator meets privately with each party.

    Private mediations are not court connected. Attorneys may or may not accompany the clients.

    Information produced in Mediation is confidential and not admissible in Court.

  • RMG Mediators are trained to facilitate respectful communications, maintain a calm environment, and help avoid stressful arguments and unnecessary tension. The benefits of mediation are undeniable:

     

    ·     Cost-effective because (most times) neither party needs a lawyer.

    ·     Less stressful because you avoid the emotional cost of litigation.

    ·     You maintain control because the end result is a customized agreement between you and the other party.

    ·     Success rate is high.

    ·     Preserves personal and business relationships.

Our mission is to educate and empower community members, families, and organizations to transform conflicts into opportunities for mutual understanding, problem solving, and enhanced outcomes.
