We offer virtual and in-person mediation at the same rate of $420/hour. This rate is split evenly amongst the parties unless all parties agree otherwise or the Court orders otherwise. We mediate cases in Federal Court, Florida Circuit Court and Florida County Court. You may schedule your mediation below, if the date/time you need is not available, please email mandi@adr-florida.com to see if arrangements can be made.
Arbitrations are flexible and vary greatly based on the circumstances. We provide both binding and non-binding arbitration services, virtually and in-person, and can manage them from start to finish in the manner that best suits the parties and the case. Therefore, it is best to schedule a call or zoom meeting with Mandi prior to scheduling an actual hearing, and you can schedule that call or zoom using the calendar below. Arbitrations are also billed at $420/hour, split evenly amongst the parties unless otherwise ordered by the Court or agreed to by the parties.
Mandi has acted as a Special Magistrate in Florida Circuit Court real estate disputes. As a licensed Real Estate professional, she is particularly qualified to handle partition cases or other real estate related matters. In addition, as a former Federal law clerk and current arbitrator, she has ample experience handling discovery disputes and is happy to act as a Special Magistrate in any type civil litigation where such expertise may be needed. We will charge $420 per hour, unless the Court orders otherwise.
At Ace Dispute Resolution, we know not everyone can afford an attorney to represent them in Court. Mandi has spent time volunteering for Bay Area Legal Services and also knows that waiting for pro bono legal services can be a long and stressful process. That is why we offer this alternative for parties who are not represented by lawyers and want to resolve their disputes outside of Court. These services are offered at a flat rate based on the type of dispute and number of parties. To participate in this program, please schedule a 30-minute phone call or zoom meeting with Mandi, using the calendar below.
