This form is used when people involved in a probate case (like an estate or guardianship) agree to try alternative dispute resolution, such as mediation, instead of going to court to settle their disagreements. Family members, heirs, executors, or guardians dealing with estate matters in San Mateo County would use this form to officially tell the court they want to resolve their differences through a neutral third party rather than a judge's decision.
This form has fillable fields — you can complete it directly in the viewer on the right.
