How does mediation work in Washtenaw County?

In Washtenaw County, mediation in court cases follows the Michigan Court Rules. For civil cases referred under MCR 2.411, parties may agree on a mediator; if they do not tell the ADR clerk by the date in the referral order, the court appoints one from its approved list in rotation.[5] Under MCR 3.216, the court may send any contested issue in a domestic relations case, including post-judgment matters, to mediation on stipulation, on a party's motion or on its own initiative, but not without a hearing when a personal protection order or a child abuse and neglect case is involved.[5] The Washtenaw County Trial Court publishes lists of approved civil and domestic relations mediators, updated January 2026, that show each mediator's hourly rate.[1][2] Most listings below come from those two lists.[1][2]

Court-connected mediation in Michigan: Michigan circuit courts keep their own lists of mediators who met court-rule training requirements, and court clerks appoint only from those lists. Some courts encourage parties to pick their own mediator; the court rules themselves were not reviewed.

Private mediation in Michigan: No state license for private mediators was found in the sources reviewed. A State Bar of Michigan ethics opinion says a lawyer-mediator may not draft all the divorce papers for both parties while acting only as mediator.
