ZOOM v. IN-PERSON MEDIATION
Zoom Mediations: Sarah’s mediations are hosted by Zoom (https://zoom.us/). It is free for participants to download and use on their computers, smart phones, and tablets. Call-in audio options are available.
If YOU host an In-Person Mediation: Sarah can travel to your location within Pinellas, Pasco, and Hillsborough Counties. She may travel to Manatee or Sarasota Counties, please ask. If one or both parties wish to have an In-Person mediation, it MUST be agreed upon at the time of scheduling and the party(ies) wishing for the In-Person Mediation must arrange for the location when the mediation is booked so it is properly included in the Notice of Mediation.
Sarah Cannot Host In-Person Mediations: Sarah’s street address is a co-working space called HydeHouse. Based on a change of “guest” rules in 2025, Sarah can no longer offer to host in-person mediations. Sarah regrets the inconvenience this may cause.
