Typically no, nor can they actually attend mediation for you or with you. If you are involved in a legal proceeding you should seriously consider hiring a lawyer. If you needed to have your appendix removed you woundn't even consider hiring a surgical nurse who watched a thoracic surgeon do the procedure hundreds of times just to save money. Using a non-lawyer or paralegal for legal matters typically causes bad results that cost even more money.
