How does mediation work in Harris County?
Since 1980, Harris County's Dispute Resolution Center, sponsored by the Houston Bar Association and funded through the county courts system, has mediated disputes free for county residents [1]. Its divorce program mediates before or after a case is filed, but only for couples with no significant financial or real property holdings and combined gross annual income of $100,000 or less [2]. For lawsuits already filed, the center takes cases with $100,000 or less in dispute and no more than three named parties, usually in four-hour sessions [3]. The three mediators below, all with Houston-area offices, come from Fort Bend County Court at Law No. 1's wheel and the Western District of Louisiana bankruptcy court's list [4][5].
