How does mediation work in Umatilla County?
Umatilla County is in Oregon's Sixth Judicial District with Morrow County, and the Umatilla & Morrow County Circuit Courts publish a joint Mediation & Arbitration page [1]. Its roster of court-connected mediators currently names only domestic relations custody and parenting mediators; the general civil, probate and financial categories are empty [1]. A civil case seeking under $50,000 in damages is subject to mandatory arbitration, as is a family dispute not involving custody or support; parties get a list of arbitrators and have 21 days to choose one [1]. The three Pendleton attorneys shown below are not mediators on that roster but approved arbitrators in its personal injury (plaintiff) category, each listed at $200 an hour [1].

Court-connected mediation in Oregon: Oregon circuit courts that refer cases to mediation keep panels of approved mediators meeting Uniform Trial Court Rules chapter 12. By statute, parties may instead pick a mediator by written agreement or use other mediation services at their expense.
Private mediation in Oregon: No state license for private mediators was found in the sources reviewed. Oregon's lawyer rules let a lawyer-mediator draft documents memorializing the mediated agreement, with a recommendation that each party get independent legal advice.
