Posted on: 03/16/2012

News Clippings

The Maryland Mediation and Conflict Resolution Office (MACRO) fairly recently put out a consumer guidebook with an intro by Chief Judge Bell. It has tons of information on mediation services in Maryland. The hardcopy is too long to copy and attach, but you can link to the resource guide by clicking on “Consumer Guide to ADR Services” on the left side of MACRO’s website: http://www.marylandmacro.org/.
