Our services
Clients requesting mediation have the ability to choose the package that will work best for them. Packages are described below. If you would like assistance with this process please call Jocelyn at 519-252-2772 and she will ask some questions to help guide you through the available choices. She can also book a neutral consultation for you both to attend to learn more.
Most clients share this retainer equally. If one client pays the full retainer this can be addressed and factored in during the mediation session. Payment options are set out below.
Do you want or need a Separation Agreement?
Our Gold Package includes the drafting of the Separation Agreement and also includes providing each of you with a lawyer to provide you with legal advice.
BRONZE PACKAGE $1,500
If you have relatively low conflict between you and want to mediate to work out parenting, support and some simpler property like deciding on your matrimonial home, with related issues, this package provides enough time for most people to do that. Once you have resolved the issues, you will receive a written Mediation Report. You can choose whether to hire a lawyer of your choosing to incorporate those terms into a formal Separation Agreement, or you can choose to use the terms from the Report to create your own Agreement, signing in front of witnesses to make it binding. We will discuss this with you further in your appointments and guide you in this process. We also have a list of lawyers that will help you do this.
This package includes:
Private intake session for each client
Up to two joint sessions of approximately two hours each
Drafting of a Mediation Report and any progress notes
Additional sessions can be purchased as needed
SILVER PACKAGE $2,500
When there are more complicated issues, such as more than one home, pensions, businesses, or spousal support disagreements, and/or a higher degree of conflict, this package provides additional time to work through those issues. You may have already hired counsel who will either attend the joint session or support you in the background, or even if one party has done this, this package provides additional hours for communicating with the lawyers or other professionals and assisting you with the financial disclosure required to support your agreement.
This package includes:
Private intake session with each client
Review of any Mediation Briefs and any financial disclosure prior to the joint session
Up to two joint sessions of up to three hours each, or three shorter sessions
Discussions with the lawyers or other professionals to resolve any outstanding issues between or after sessions
Drafting of Mediation Report that will be incorporated into an Agreement by a lawyer

“I entered the process without having my hopes up because of how difficult my case was considered to be. To my surprise and happiness, we were able to resolve all issues. The mediator was very professional and productive. She definitely was experienced and knew exactly how to deal with the other party.”
