Abstract
No mediators have yet been held liable for the unauthorized practice of law, breach of statute, breach of contract, or negligently performing their services. However, a detailed examination of emerging American and Canadian jurisprudence, especially cases from Ontario's Mandatory Mediation Program, highlights when mediators have fallen below appropriate mediator conduct, and therefore indicates what might constitute mediator malpractice in the Canadian facilitative mediation context.
