Austin Mediators
Austin's mediators serve a docket shaped by state government, technology, and fast-growing Central Texas counties — regulatory and employment disputes, construction defect cases from the building boom, and family matters across Travis, Williamson, and Hays Counties. The panel below includes former judges and board-certified specialists, each with a live calendar showing real open dates.
Austin has 14 mediators on this list. Of those, 12 handle personal injury, 12 take medical malpractice disputes, and 12 mediate commercial matters; 8 publish their rates, which run $875–$2,000 per party for a half day and $1,700–$4,000 for a full day. Like every Texas district court, Travis County’s civil and family courts can refer a case to mediation under Chapter 154 of the Civil Practice and Remedies Code, and most docket control orders set a mediation deadline well before the trial setting. Each calendar below refreshes hourly from the mediator’s own scheduling system, so the open dates you see are current.

Do Austin mediators offer virtual mediation?
Most mediators listed here offer in-person, Zoom, and hybrid formats. Check the Formats line on a mediator's profile, or ask the office when you confirm your date.
Do Austin courts require mediation before trial?
Texas courts may refer any civil or family case to mediation under Chapter 154 of the Civil Practice and Remedies Code, and Travis County judges routinely do — most docket control orders set a mediation deadline before the trial date. A party who objects in writing within ten days of the referral notice can ask the court to withdraw it, but in practice nearly every case mediates at least once. Choosing a mediator early, while good dates are still open, is the easiest way to meet the deadline.
