mediator n. a person who conducts mediation. A mediator is usually a lawyer, or retired judge, but can be a non-attorney specialist in the subject matter (like child custody) who tries to bring people and their disputes to early resolution through a conference.

(See: mediation, arbitration, arbitrator) See also: adjuster, advocate, arbiter, broker, conduit, counselor, interagent, intermediary, liaison, medium, referee, spokesman, umpire MEDIATOR. One who interposes between two contending parties, with their consent, for the purpose of assisting them in settling their differences.
