Mediation Services

Our mediation services provide a peaceful and effective way to resolve conflicts. With our mediators, we help individuals, businesses, and communities find mutually beneficial solutions.

We want a divorce, but we need a better way.

Mediation

The primary dispute resolution service available through the DRC is mediation. Mediation is a process in which two or more people involved in a dispute meet either at the DRC in-person or online via Zoom. Mediators do not make judgments, express opinions or give legal advice. Instead, they facilitate communication so the parties can find a solution of their own. A wide variety of cases can be successfully resolved through mediation such as neighborhood issues, family law disputes such as pre- and post-divorce matters, real estate, landlord/tenant, consumer/merchant, employer/employee, business and small claims.

Civil Litigation
Mediation (CLM)

CLMs are offered for cases when the parties prefer an attorney mediator. Parties may have already entered the litigation process.

“Serving on the board of the DRC has given me a great appreciation for the value of its mission – helping people resolve disputes in a less combative manner, often saving both time and money. It’s a great organization and we look forward to serving more and more Central Texans over the coming years.”

Juvenile Court Pre-Release / Parent-Child Mediation

The DRC, in partnership with Travis County Juvenile Courts, provides volunteer mediators to perform mediations on-site at the Gardner-Betts Juvenile Detention Center. These court mandated mediations give the teen and the parents an opportunity to discuss what they each will do once the teen returns to the home. The judge’s goal is for teens and parents to reach a family agreement before the teen is released.

Juvenile Court Victim/
Offender Mediation

The DRC, in a cooperative effort with the Travis County Juvenile Court, provides volunteer mediators to perform mediations on-site at the Juvenile Court. These sessions make it possible for alleged juvenile offenders and their victims to meet face-to-face to discuss the impact of the offense and to arrange for restitution or another solution agreeable to both parties.
