Key terms and conditions

Fees are payable in advance by cleared funds.

Parties are jointly and severally liable for all fees from the receipt of the booking confirmation email by them – unless the booking is cancelled within 24 hours of receipt of the booking confirmation email. The booking confirmation email with state the agreed mediation date.  It will also give other key detaiis.

Parties must sign the Society’s Agreement to Mediate before the mediation commences: failure to sign does not remove the liability for fees.

*  Less than 3 full calendar days before the agreed mediation date – the full fee is charged 

Time is calculated from the moment of receipt by the Society of the email or message cancelling or postponing the mediation.
