Questions
Common Questions About Workplace Mediation
Direct answers to what people ask most.
How much does mediation cost?
Mediation is billed hourly and the two parties split the fee equally. For example, at $250 per hour, each party pays $125 per hour. If standard fees are out of reach, you can petition for a reduced, sliding-scale rate, reviewed case by case.
Is mediation confidential?
Mediators and staff are held to confidentiality. We encourage confidentiality among the parties but cannot guarantee it.
Is a mediated agreement legally binding?
Mediation itself is not binding. If you reach agreement it can be written up and, once signed, made enforceable. We are not your attorneys, and we recommend your own lawyer review any agreement first.
What if the other party won't participate?
Mediation is voluntary, so both people must agree to take part. If you are ready but the other party is unsure, we can help you invite them and explain the process with no pressure.
Do I need a lawyer to mediate?
No. You are not required to have a lawyer. You may consult one, and for some matters such as divorce, having an attorney review your final agreement is a good idea.
Do you meet online?
We offer either. We mediate online with parties anywhere in Minnesota, and in person at our Roseville office for the Twin Cities metro.
