How does mediation work in San Luis Obispo County?

San Luis Obispo County's trial court is the Superior Court of California, County of San Luis Obispo [1]. The court's Case Management Orders strongly encourage early mediation, and a Mediation Order sets the deadline for finishing it [2]. Small claims mediation comes from the Center for Dispute Resolution at San Luis Obispo College of Law, and Family Court Mediation Services handles custody and visitation at (805) 706-3608 [2]. For private civil mediators, the court points to the SLO Bar ADR panel [2]. The mediators listed below come from other courts' official panels [3][4].
