How does mediation work in Baltimore County?

The Circuit Court for Baltimore County, in Towson, has both a civil (non-family) ADR program (410-887-4848) and a family ADR program (410-887-6570) [1]. These programs can offer mediation or a settlement conference before trial, in family matters such as contested custody and marital property and in civil cases such as contract and personal injury disputes [1]. The county's Orphans' Court has its own estate mediation coordinator (410-887-6516), and the Conflict Resolution Center of Baltimore County provides free or low-cost community mediation [1]. Most mediators below are on the Judiciary's MACRO statewide roster (Oct. 2026), many also on the county court's own list, plus a few bankruptcy court Resolution Advocates [2][3][4].

No mediator from another state has told us they work online with Maryland clients in this practice area yet. Local mediators may also offer video sessions; ask when you contact them.

Court-ordered case? Courts may require a mediator from their own approved list for court-ordered cases. Check your court’s rules, or see how mediation works in Maryland.

Court-connected mediation in Maryland: When a Maryland circuit court picks the mediator, it picks from its approved roster (now handled through MACRO). Parties may instead agree on a different mediator, on the list or not, within 30 days of the referral order.

Private mediation in Maryland: No state license for private mediators was found in the sources reviewed. A Maryland rule note says mediators may record points of agreement but should not author agreements in litigated cases. No out-of-state or online rule was found.
