Family Court maintains a database of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) providers that parties can use for assistance in settling a case. You may browse all entries in the Family ADR database using the "List All" link below.
Name and contact information, including email address, will be displayed for all providers. Additional information such as hourly rate and subject area specialties will be displayed on each provider's detail page.
Mediators who wish to be added to this database are encouraged to submit an application (Form FM-1019 ). Mediators who need to update their provider information may contact the Court at ADR@scscourt.org, or fill out the Family ADR Background Sheet (Form FM-1020 ) and mail or email it to the Court.
