The North Carolina Academy of Superior Court Mediators is a site that provides a useful roster of experienced mediators, searchable by region and case expertise. You can even check availability dates online for those that participate in the site's online calendar.
This organization's members do pay a fee to be "on the list" but what I like about this site is that the membership is by invitation only, selected by the Academy's committee (consisting of mediators I have dealt with who I believe to be some of the best in the area). This ensures that you will receive high quality service from a mediator who is experienced in the area of law you need and not someone who has only been practicing for 6 months who has to take a break during mediation to pull a statute book and read the applicable law (yes, I speak from experience).
Sometimes it's hard to get an opposing party who is not represented to agree on a mediator. It doesn't matter who we choose, they don't like that choice (we're "out to get them", right?). Send those clients to this site and tell them to choose someone from it.
