Legal Question in Family Law in California

Can an old acquaintance serve as a divorce mediator? An old coworker of my mother's whom I haven't seen since I was a child is now a lawyer, would she still be considered neutral? Neither my mother or I have seen her in 20+ years. Also, would she have to disclose to my soon to be ex?
