Mediation Representation & Neutral Mediation Services in North Dallas and East Texas
Not all disagreements need to be resolved through a courtroom battle. Mediation offers a private, cost-effective, and respectful way to resolve legal disputes, especially in emotionally charged situations involving divorce, child custody, or estate conflicts.
Our founder at Mohr Law Group is a board-certified family law attorney and certified mediator with 14 years of experience. This allows us to lead mediations with a deep understanding of both the law and the emotional dynamics involved. By combining strategic advocacy with compassionate guidance, our goal is to help you effectively navigate and resolve conflicts without resorting to litigation. We can represent you in mediation or serve as a neutral mediator. Our firm offers a modern, convenient, and affordable mediation process (for example, offering remote mediations and flat fee payment structures), and we believe our reviews speak for themselves.
If you would prefer to avoid going to court to resolve a dispute, we invite you to schedule a consultation with our mediators. Call (469) 218-2802 or contact us online today.
What Is Mediation?
Mediation is an alternative dispute resolution process in which a neutral third-party mediator facilitates communication between disputing parties to help them find a mutually acceptable solution. Unlike court proceedings, mediation is confidential, less formal, and gives the parties control over the outcome. It often results in faster resolutions and can significantly reduce litigation's emotional and financial costs.
Mediation Led by a Litigator
Because we understand the courtroom, we know how to help clients make informed, realistic decisions in mediation. We can help you weigh the risks and costs of litigation against the benefits of settlement so that you can make the right choices for your future.
Making Mediation Work for You with Flexible Scheduling
Mediation sessions can be hosted in our office, at the office of either party's attorney, or remotely via Zoom video conferencing, whichever is most convenient for the parties involved. We offer full-day (eight-hour), half-day (four-hour), and hourly mediation sessions to ensure that you have enough time to reach a resolution without paying for a longer period than you need.
Top Five Reasons to Choose Mediation
Mediation can be a valuable tool because it promotes understanding and cooperation while helping you avoid the time, emotional toll, financial expense, and risk of going to court. It allows for flexible solutions tailored to the unique needs of each party involved, which is particularly beneficial in family and business disputes where relationships need to be preserved. Furthermore, mediation sessions are designed to be less adversarial, fostering a more open, respectful dialogue.
Here are our top five reasons for choosing mediation to resolve disputes:

-
Not usually. Support from friends or family is important, but they cannot attend the mediation itself. Mediation is confidential, and only the parties (and their attorneys, if applicable) should participate. This also means that there shouldn't be anyone in the room with a party if they are participating virtually. There are some exceptions to this rule, such as when a party is disabled, when a party needs a translator, or if the parties and the mediator agree in advance that third parties can attend.
-
Not typically. At Mohr Law Group, we conduct mediation using a "shuttle" method. This means each party remains in a separate room (or virtual breakout room), and the mediator moves between them. This approach reduces tension and allows for more productive negotiations. Occasionally, the parties will request to stay in the same room, or a special set of circumstances may warrant it.
-
We offer flat rates for mediation based on the length of the session:
- Full-day session (eight hours): $2,400
- Half-day session (four hours): $1,200
- Hourly rate (minimum 1 hour): $450
A $250 deposit is due when you reserve your date, and the remainder is due before mediation begins. Each party pays 50% of the fees, unless the parties agree otherwise or the court has ordered one party to pay the entire fee.
-
In mediation, you and the other party make the decisions together. In court, a judge makes those decisions for you, and they are limited by what the law says they can do. In mediation, the parties can reach creative and customized agreements. Mediation also tends to be significantly faster, less expensive, and more private than litigation.
-
You do not have to have a lawyer to attend a mediation session, but it’s in your best interest to have one. When one of our lawyers represents you in mediation, we can advise you before, during, and after mediation and make sure you understand any agreement before you sign it. It’s important to emphasize that the mediator is neutral and cannot give legal advice to either party. It’s also vitally important to understand that if you sign a Mediated Settlement Agreement, the terms of that agreement are binding, so you cannot change your mind later if you realize you shouldn’t have agreed to something or forgot something because you didn’t have an attorney’s assistance.
-
While we advocate for mediation as a powerful tool for conflict resolution, we recognize that it does not suit every circumstance. Cases involving domestic violence, hidden assets, or a party unwilling to negotiate in good faith often require the protective measures of traditional litigation. However, for those willing to communicate and compromise, mediation can offer a constructive path forward.
We encourage you to explore mediation if:
- You prioritize preserving family relationships. In both divorce and estate disputes, litigation often creates permanent rifts. If you need to co-parent effectively after a divorce or wish to maintain sibling bonds during a will contest, mediation can help foster the cooperation necessary to keep these relationships intact.
- You value privacy regarding financial or personal matters. Courtroom battles regarding family law or contested estates become public record. If you own a business, hold significant assets, or simply value your privacy, mediation can allow us to confidentially resolve your dispute.
- You require flexible solutions for complex assets. Judges must follow strict statutory formulas when dividing marital property. These rigid rules often fail to account for the nuances of family businesses, real estate holdings, or unique investments. Mediation empowers us to craft creative, custom agreements that satisfy everyone involved.
- You want to minimize the emotional impact on children. Children tend to absorb the stress of their parents' legal battles. By choosing mediation, you can shield them from the hostility of a trial.
- You prefer to spend assets on the family, not legal fees. Extended litigation can deplete the very assets you are trying to divide or inherit. If your goal involves preserving community property or the legacy left by a loved one, mediation may be the most prudent path forward.
- You need a faster resolution than the court system allows. Probate and family courts in Texas often face significant backlogs. If you need to settle an estate quickly to pay debts or finalize a divorce to move on with your life, mediation allows you to set your own timeline and resolve matters efficiently.
