How long is mediation?
The judge can order parents to go to custody mediation for up to four hours, during one or two sessions. After that, the judge can order up to four more hours if the mediator recommends it and the judge agrees there is a good reason to do so (“good cause”). If you and the other parent both want to, you can agree to do mediation for longer.1
