4 mediators list Placer County as their home county on official California rosters.
Placer County's trial court is the Superior Court of California, County of Placer [1]. The court's Civil page does not list a court mediator panel; it tells parties interested in alternative dispute resolution to seek a mediation service before coming to court or to ask about it at their hearing, and points to the Self-Help Center for help with forms [2]. The Civil Unit also handles appeals [2]. The mediators listed below come from other courts' official panels, mostly the El Dorado County Superior Court's Mediation Panelist List [3].
