How does mediation work in King County?

King County Superior Court's main office is at 516 3rd Ave. in Seattle [1]. When parents disagree on a parenting plan, the court's Family Court Services mediates once a judge orders it or a case is referred, with sliding-scale fees capped at $1,000 per party [2]. Local Family Law Rule 16 requires a settlement conference, mediation or other ADR before trial unless the case involves domestic violence or the court waives it [3]. Washington Courts also lists the DRC of King County and Bellevue Conflict Resolution Center [4]. The mediators below are on the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Washington's ADR neutrals list [5].
