How does mediation work in St. Mary's County?

In St. Mary's County, the Circuit Court in Leonardtown orders parties in contested child custody and child access cases to mediation when the case is appropriate for it.[5] The clerk's Family Services Program refers these cases to court-approved mediators at Community Mediation of St. Mary's, who work in pairs as co-mediators.[5] A Family Services Jurisdictional Grant pays for the program, and Community Mediation of St. Mary's does not charge a fee.[5] According to the Judiciary's MACRO office, the circuit court can also use mediation or settlement conferences in non-family civil cases, and ADR services in the District Court are free to participants.[6] Most mediators listed below come from MACRO's Mediator Excellence directory and its Circuit Court Roster.[7][2]
