How does mediation work in Clay County?
Clay County is Missouri's 7th Judicial Circuit [1]. Under its Local Rule 68.8, parties in dissolution, legal separation or paternity cases with contested custody or visitation must complete mediation before asking for a trial setting, unless the case is excluded or exempted [2]. They may arrange mediation privately, ask the court to order it, or go through the Family Court's Office of Dispute Resolution Services, which provides program services based on the parties' income [2]. The court also offers mediation in rent and possession cases in Division VII [2]. Mediators listed below are mainly on the federal Western District of Missouri's MAP neutral list [3].
