How does mediation work in Wayne County?
Wayne County makes up Michigan's 3rd judicial circuit under MCL 600.504, served by the Third Judicial Circuit Court [1][2]. The court's 2022 Annual Report describes the Mediation Tribunal Association, a nonprofit founded in 1979 that provides alternative dispute resolution services for the court and keeps a roster of attorney case evaluators under MCR 2.403 [2]. For families, the report says the court's Dispute Resolution Unit partners with Wayne Mediation Center on mediation when parents are in conflict over custody or parenting time [2]. Most mediators listed below are on the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Michigan's Panel of Facilitative Mediators [3].

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.
