Legal disputes don’t always have to end up in court. At SL Brown Legal, we offer mediation services led by Attorney Hicks — a neutral third-party professional dedicated to helping individuals and businesses resolve conflicts efficiently, privately, and cost-effectively.

Serving Harris County, Brazoria County, Fort Bend County, and other neighboring areas in Texas, Attorney Hicks facilitates productive conversations that help parties reach common ground without the stress and expense of litigation.

What Is Mediation?

Mediation is a structured, confidential process where a neutral mediator guides both parties through discussion and negotiation to reach a voluntary agreement. It is often faster, more flexible, and less costly than going to court — and can preserve relationships that may otherwise be damaged by contentious litigation.

Attorney Hicks approaches every mediation with impartiality, patience, and a commitment to fairness, creating a respectful environment where each party is heard and empowered to find practical solutions.

Areas of Mediation Offered

We offer mediation services for a range of disputes, including:

Custody, Visitation & Child Support
Family conflicts can be deeply emotional. Mediation allows parents to collaboratively create parenting plans and support agreements that prioritize the best interests of their children while reducing courtroom stress and delays.

Neighborhood Disputes
Disagreements between neighbors — whether over property boundaries, noise, or shared spaces — can escalate quickly. Mediation helps diffuse tension and fosters resolution while maintaining the integrity of the community relationship.

Real Estate Disputes
From residential disagreements to commercial lease conflicts, mediation can be an effective way to resolve real estate issues without a prolonged legal battle. We help both parties identify solutions that protect their rights and investments.
