How to Become a District Court Mediator

Volunteer mediators for the U.S. District Court are selected by the Mediation Program staff and approved by the court. At any given time, the court has approximately 90 active volunteers. New mediators are added to the roster depending upon the court’s needs. Members of the roster must be members of the District Court bar, and most have been admitted to the D.C. Bar and have been practicing law for at least ten years. All new mediators must take part in a two-day training session taught by the Mediation Program staff and volunteer mediators. If you are interested in serving as a mediator, contact Robert Fisher at (202) 216-7343.
