The McCammon Group strives to provide mediation and arbitration services with Quality, Results and Value. To achieve value, we have established a tiered fee schedule that reflects the differences in the size of cases. There are no filing, administrative or cancellation fees. The hourly rate is derived from the schedule below.

| The fee tier is determined by the mid-point of the offer and demand. If no negotiations have occurred, or if the case is not based on monetary values, the professional rate will be determined based on the available information.
The mid-point and associated fee tier do not suggest the actual or potential value of the case; they are merely used to classify the case. |
The professional rate applies to all of the Neutral’s time, for example, pre-process conference calls, review of submissions, the process itself and any post-process time including follow-up activities, deliberation and award preparation (arbitration), etc. Travel time is billed at one-half the professional rate, plus travel related expenses. Also, reasonable out of pocket expenses, for example, the cost of long distance phone calls, will be billed.
Fees will be divided evenly among the parties unless otherwise agreed and communicated to The McCammon Group Case Manager in advance of the proceeding. For parties represented by a lawyer, the lawyer and that lawyer’s firm will be responsible for payment. If the lawyer and the law firm do not wish to be responsible payers, they will need to arrange for their client to establish a satisfactory retainer account with The McCammon Group 14 days in advance of any professional services rendered by The McCammon Group. A party is defined as a single client or any number of clients represented by a single law firm.
This schedule does not apply to certain Neutrals, and it may be adjusted for cases involving more than one Neutral.
