How does mediation work in Fairfield County?
Local Rule 11 of Fairfield County's Domestic Relations Court (effective 2026) lets the court order parties in filed cases into mediation, while court staff can refer parties before filing if one asks.[1] Mediators may be assigned at random or appointed from the court's approved roster, or the parties may choose from it.[1] Each mediator must screen for domestic violence, and mediation cannot be used to set protection order terms.[1] Anyone objecting to a referral or to the mediator has seven days to file a written objection.[1] Judge Laura B. Smith's court sits in the Hall of Justice in Lancaster.[2] The three mediators below are Fairfield-based names from Franklin County's private mediator roster.[3][4]

Court-connected mediation in Ohio: Ohio courts that use mediation set their own local rules. The Supreme Court's rules require court-referred mediators to complete approved training, with extra degree, experience and training requirements for family, juvenile and child-protection referrals.
Private mediation in Ohio: The Supreme Court of Ohio states that neither the state nor the Court licenses or certifies mediators, and completing an approved training does not make someone a 'Supreme Court certified mediator.' No rule on online or out-of-state mediators was found.
