Conflict Resolution Coaching
Manousso Mediation offers conflict coaching to help leaders and individuals deal with conflict more constructively at work and at home. Conflict Coaching is an opportunity for a private, confidential,
one-on-one session to deal with a specific situation of conflict in your personal life or a corporate situation.
Family & Elder Care Mediation
Family Mediation includes elder care and adult mediation, not just divorce or child custody. It also includes mediation resolution between family members for a variety of issues, ranging from miscommunication to no communication. Our sessions are not therapy, but an hour mediation can make a healthy difference in a quality relationship between and among siblings, cousins, and other family combinations.

Divorce Mediation
If you are contemplating divorce in Texas and have considered consulting with a divorce attorney on your own, you may first want to explore the benefits of working together with a mediator in divorce mediation.
Divorce mediation will not only save you and your spouse the considerable time and expense of an adversarial legal proceeding, but it will also shelter you and your children from the most harmful emotional effects of your divorce.
Divorce Mediation Payment Options
MEDIATION FEE SCHEDULE
Our mediation fee is simple and charged at a fixed rate of $300 per hour for two parties, without regard to the nature, amount in controversy, or complexity of the case. This rate is divided by each party. In the event that there are more than two parties, the third and fourth party pays an additional $150 per hour to the base rate of $300.
No mediation schedule is confirmed until each party has paid their share of the fee.
Partial-Day Fees
Fees are $450 per party for a minimum of three hours. See cancellation policy.
Full-Day Fees
When a full day of mediation is expected, the rate will be $1,200 per party, based on eight (8) hours. See cancellation policy.
Overtime Fees
If the mediation extends past eight (8) hours for a full-day or three (3) hours for a partial-day, then each party will be charged the hourly fee of $150 as part of the $300 per hour rate. Please be prepared to provide a check at the mediation for overtime fees or bring a credit card to use our PayPal option.
Special Client Needs
If this fee schedule needs modification for your case, I would be willing to negotiate a more convenient rate. The venues that we use for mediation are all handicap and wheelchair accessible.
Cancellation Policy
A cancellation fee of $500, or $250 each party, will be charged to the canceling parties for a mediation canceled fourteen (14) days prior to the scheduled mediation date. Otherwise, mediation fees, once paid and scheduled, are non-refundable. If the mediation is rescheduled and conducted, we will apply any funds in excess of the $500 cancellation fee toward the rescheduled mediation. We will make every prudent effort to work with you, your client, and your schedule.
