How does mediation work in Harford County?
The Circuit Court for Harford County, in Bel Air, has an ADR Program (410-638-3054) that coordinates mediation for general civil and family law cases [1]. Every family case is screened for safety and appropriateness before a mediation order, often with an ADR coordinator speaking to each party confidentially [1]. Besides the court-approved roster, coordinators may refer income-eligible child access cases to the Office of Family Court Services, and Harford Community Action Agency handles some court-referred mediation [1]. Since July 1, 2025, practitioners apply centrally through MACRO and can then join any county roster [1]. All Harford mediators below are on MACRO's statewide roster (Oct. 2026), five also on the court's own list [2][3].
