Fields of Expertise in Mediation
A few words about Mediation
Mediation is an out -of-court alternative dispute resolution process. The parties involved in private disputes can use Mediation, provided that they have the right of disposal of the subject-matter of their dispute and they agree with the mediation procedure according to the provisions of the Law. Each party attends the mediation together with his/her appointed Attorney at Law. The parties voluntarily remain during the process where they negotiate, assisted by a neutral, independent and impartial Mediator, with the common aim to reach an agreement resolving the dispute in question.
The parties’ Agreement is incorporated into the Mediation Minutes signed by the parties and the Mediator, which can become an enforceable title, which constitutes the legal basis for enforcement, provided that specific requirements are met.
