CMC Fixed Fee Scheme
Mediating small claims disputes with grace, under the Civil Mediation Council Fixed Fee Scheme
As a CMC Accredited Mediator, I am available to take mediation appointments through the CMC Fixed Fee Scheme.
In order to give parties to a dispute of a value under £50,000 the option to employ a mediator at a reasonable rate, some individual mediators and providers are signed up to the Fixed Fee Mediation Scheme. As an Accredited Mediator through Essential Mediation Solutions, I am one such mediator. The fees for this service are set out below.
​
I am happy to discuss with the parties to the mediation whether the mediation session will be done in person or by telephone/video, although I have a preference for a mediation session of 2 hours or less to be done by telephone/video.
​
Both parties will need to agree to mediate and it is helpful to have agreed on this before you approach me as mediator.
