  • If the mediation is cancelled, adjourned or postponed more than 30 days prior to the scheduled date for the mediation, there will be no cancellation fee.
  • If the mediation is cancelled, adjourned or postponed within 30 days of the scheduled date for the mediation (but more than 2 weeks from the scheduled date of the mediation), the cancellation fee will be half of the mediator’s fee, plus any non-refundable disbursements.
