Mediation

Placing the Power of Resolution in Your Hands

In response to COVID-19, the Mediation and Conflict Resolution Clinic closed its doors in Dallas and in Plano for the health and safety of students, faculty, mediators and clients. At this time, the clinic will not reopen for services when the University reopens. We want to thank all the volunteer mediators and community partners who provided their support over the past 25 years. If you are seeking mediation services, you might consider the following options below.
