Gentlemen- I have spoken to the Director of the Hill Country Alternative Dispute Resolution Center regarding them hearing our dispute BEFORE we hire an Attorney. She said they would be happy to do so and it would cost the County about $100.00. Mrs. Brown will be in court to answer any questions. I think it would be a benefit if the County Attorney would do some investigation to provide information to the mediator. Thank you, #1
