Terms of service
Last updated 2026.
Use of this website
This website is provided for general information about mediation services. Content may change without notice and is offered without warranty of any kind.
No legal advice, no attorney-client relationship
Danielle Carney serves as a neutral mediator. Nothing on this site constitutes legal advice, and submitting an enquiry or booking a consultation does not create an attorney-client or mediator-party relationship. Each party is encouraged to obtain independent legal counsel.
Scope of mediation services
The mediator facilitates discussion and does not decide the outcome, impose terms, or represent either party. Participation is voluntary, and any party may withdraw at any time. Agreements reached become binding only when reduced to writing and signed by the parties.
Engagement and fees
Mediation services begin only once a written engagement or court referral is in place. Current rates are listed on the Services page, and the Agreement to Mediate and Fee Notice confirms the applicable rate and payment terms. Payment is required prior to the mediation session and confirms the booking. Fees are ordinarily shared equally by the parties unless otherwise agreed or ordered by the court.
Cancellation and rescheduling
Time is reserved specifically for each scheduled mediation. Cancellations and requests to reschedule must be submitted in writing by email. Applicable notice requirements and any cancellation fees are outlined in the Agreement to Mediate and may depend on when the mediation is scheduled and when the cancellation or rescheduling occurs. These terms are provided to the parties before mediation is confirmed.
Confidentiality
Mediation communications are confidential under Chapter 44, Florida Statutes, subject to its stated exceptions. Please do not send sensitive documents through the website form.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by Florida law, Danielle Carney Mediation is not liable for any indirect or consequential loss arising from use of this website or reliance on its content.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, and any dispute relating to them shall be brought in the courts of Citrus County, Florida.
