Mediation (L. 4640/2019)

Mandatory initial session & voluntary submission

§

Accredited mediator services and legal representation in mediation — the mandatory initial session and voluntary submission of disputes.

Typical cases

  • Disputes subject to a mandatory initial session before trial
  • Commercial and civil disputes needing fast resolution
  • Family and inheritance disputes
  • Parties seeking an enforceable settlement without litigation

The process, step by step

  1. Scope check
    Whether the dispute falls under the mandatory session or can be submitted voluntarily.
  2. Preparation
    Basic-facts sheet, negotiation strategy, financial limits.
  3. The session
    Conducted in strict confidentiality — the mediator does not judge; they facilitate a solution.
  4. The minutes
    Filed with the court — the settlement minutes constitute an enforceable title.
