Experienced Mediator
Certified Family Mediator, Susan Giacoletto, Esq., brings years of experience as a mediator/neutral professional to help families find common ground.
What is mediation?
Mediation allows parties to have more control over their future by guiding them in crafting the settlement they want presented to the court.
Zoom Mediation
We can mediate in-person, or via Zoom.
We may mediate in one session or over several sessions, depending on the needs of the parties.
Accessible Spaces and Video Conferencing
Our main conference room is wheelchair-accessible. It provides ample room for the parties to meet in a joint session, or for one side to meet in caucus with the mediator.
Although in-person mediation is often preferred for family mediation, there are times when it is not practical, such as when one party lives out-of-state, when we are practicing social distancing; or due to other health and safety considerations. Therefore, we can mediate via Zoom if everyone is in agreement, or otherwise authorized by the presiding court.
Mediation Fees
Our standard mediation fee is $200.00 per hour, with each side responsible for $100.00 per hour. The fee is divided equally between the parties, unless otherwise agreed in writing in advance or ordered by the Court.
If a party has been declared indigent by the court/clerk in the underlying case within the previous 90 days, our policy is that the indigent party’s fee is reduced to $75.00 an hour.
Fees subject to change. Please feel free to contact us for further information.
