I want to make a living off being a mediator (say, for nyc courts, or something), but I have no law degree...?
I want to do mediation, but I have no law degree. I have a bachelor of science degree in something unrelated (computer science). I live in New York City. I want to know if I need a law degree or can I just take a certification class, pass a test, and be able to be hired as a mediator. As for what kind of mediation, I am figuring, for civil court cases, or something. Also, does anyone know where I can find out more information on this job and what it takes to be hired?
