How does mediation work in Buffalo County?

Buffalo County and Hall County together make up Nebraska's Ninth Judicial District [1]. Central Mediation Center is the Office of Dispute Resolution's approved center for Buffalo County and 34 other counties [2]. ODR-approved centers offer parents a sliding fee scale based on income, and if no individual mediator is available for a county, ODR suggests contacting that county's center [3]. Parents unable to reach a parenting plan can be ordered by the court to attempt mediation [4]. Mediators below are drawn from ODR's Find a Mediator list [3].
