Mediation Fees:

Fees are split equally by the parties unless other arrangements are agreed to in advance.

Amount in Dispute:

Dr. Goetz’s view is that mediation is not a one-day event, but a process that begins shortly after the matter is received that includes mediation meeting time to resolve the matter.

Greater than $100,000: 

• $2,000 for a process that includes a ½ day of mediation meeting time, and $500/hr. per hour for any hours in excess of ½ day of mediation meeting time.

$100,000 or less:

• $1,500  for a process that includes a ½ day of mediation meeting time, and $500/hr., per hour for any hours in excess of ½ day of mediation meeting time.

Included in my practice:

• Preparation and intake time is part of the process.
• Parties are not required to travel to any office for the mediation. We will conduct the hearing at a mutually agreed upon site or via videoconferencing (i.e., ZOOM) that is convenient for the participants.

Arbitration Fees:

Private arbitrations are accepted that are related to Dr. Goetz's arbitration practice.

• $500 / hearing hour
  • The cost for a full arbitration is dependent upon the parties' preferences/needs (e.g., a need for a written and reasoned decision by Dr. Goetz).
