Can the mediator go to court for the divorce hearing?
No. The parties, with the assistance of their advisory attorney, get a hearing date with a judge and then may go to court with attorney(s) or go by themselves, representing themselves “pro se”. An attorney-mediator would not appear in court with mediation clients as it may create a perception to the court, or the couple, that the mediator had represented them.
