How does mediation work in Prince William County?
Prince William County is Virginia's 31st Judicial Circuit, the highest-numbered in the state [1]. It has a Prince William Circuit Court, General District Court and Juvenile and Domestic Relations District Court [2]. The state's August 2025 list of mediation coordinator contractors does not include Prince William [3], so parties with an active district court case should ask the clerk's office about mediation, as Dispute Resolution Services advises [4]. Mediators below are certified through the Supreme Court of Virginia's Dispute Resolution Services, which keeps the state's searchable mediator directory [4].
