How does mediation work in Lawrence County?
Lawrence County shares Tennessee's 22nd Judicial District with Giles, Maury and Wayne counties, and the district's four Circuit Judges take turns presiding there [1]. Twice a month those judges sit as the county's Chancery Court, which hears divorce and custody matters, property issues and civil claims over $25,000 [1]. The county courthouse holds all four local trial courts: Chancery, Circuit, General Sessions and Juvenile [1]. General Sessions also serves as small claims court, with awards capped at $25,000, and a Juvenile Magistrate decides custody and support between parents who never married [1]. Our Lawrence County listings come from the AOC's Rule 31 mediator list as of October 2026 [2].

No mediator from another state has told us they work online with Tennessee clients in this practice area yet. Local mediators may also offer video sessions; ask when you contact them.
Court-ordered case? Courts may require a mediator from their own approved list for court-ordered cases. Check your court’s rules, or see how mediation works in Tennessee.
Court-connected mediation in Tennessee: When a Tennessee court orders Rule 31 mediation and the parties don't pick a listed Rule 31 mediator together, the judge names three from the AOC's statewide list and each side strikes one name.
Private mediation in Tennessee: Rule 31 says its standards cover only mediations and mediators under that rule, not private mediation outside it. The ADR Commission may waive training for a mediator approved and in good standing in another state.
