You read that correctly. The first couple to book a session for the month gets it free of charge. That applies to any kind of session, whether an Arb-Med process, arbitration only, or mediation only.
Free really means free (we really do charge $0 for one free session each month), but not unlimited (fair is fair). Some restrictions apply. For details and terms call 801-466-9277.
Why offer a free session to one couple each month?
