Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Florida

Former tenants damaged my condo, repair costs were itemized and deposit was refunded minus the repairs, now I am being summoned to appear before a mediator. State board already reviewed case and determined I was within my rights to withhold for the damages, do I need a lawyer at the mediation?
