FAQs

Mediation is an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) method in which a neutral third person listens to the parties’ description of their conflict and assists them in finding an agreeable solution for their dispute. The mediator is only a facilitator of the process and does not decide for the parties. The mediator is a skilled professional who has passed training courses on the theory and practice of mediation, and unlike traditional mediators, does not gain her/his position from social status.

  • Both mediation and arbitration are Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) methods, but they differ in some aspects:
    • Arbitration ends with the arbitrator’s decision on the award, but the mediation process ends with the parties’ mutual decision and agreement on a solution.
    • The arbitration’s final goal is fulfilling the rights and proceeding based on the facts of the case, but the main goal in mediation is restoring the parties’ relations and unveiling the root of the conflict.
    • The arbitration process could last for months or even years, while the mediation process guides the parties to a mutual settlement in a couple of weeks.
    • Arbitration’s outcome is win-lose and enforced by the law, but the outcome of mediation is win-win and therefore constrained by the will of the parties.

The judicial process leads to the judge’s verdict, but the mediation process ends with the parties’ mutual decision of the on a settlement.

The justice system focuses on restoring justice and settling the dispute, and the process is based on the facts of the case. At the same time, mediation aims to restore the parties’ relations and clarify the root of the conflict.

The litigation process and the verdict’s execution could take more than a year, while mediation guides the parties to an agreeable solution in a couple of weeks.

The outcome of litigation is win-lose, and it’s enforced by the law, but the mediation process results in a win-win agreement, and therefore it’s enforced by the will of the parties.

Mediation costs much less compared to arbitration and litigation, and it results in a shorter period.

By using effective communication skills, the mediator guarantees the fairness of the process and the conduct towards the parties. The neutrality of the mediator reflects in her/his equitable behavior towards each party. The mediator does not accept conditions for support from external actors that would influence the mediation process in favor of one party.

Participation in mediation is voluntary; parties can leave the process any time, and the mediator can’t force them to continue with the process.

The parties are the experts of their conflict, and the proper solutions are in their hands; therefore, the mediator does not decide for them.

In general, the principles of our Code of Conduct govern the mediator’s authority during the mediation process.

Each one of the following could be your reason for choosing mediation:

  • Wanting a solution for your dispute that can last
  • Keeping your relationship after the conflict resolution process
  • Avoiding the long process of litigation and/or arbitration
  • Actively participating in the conflict resolution process and being heard
  • Saving on time and money spent on the process

Depending on the nature of the conflict, the number of the parties, and the level of their participation during the process, the mediation process takes a couple of weeks.

All conflicts could be referred to mediation by the will of the parties, and there are no limitations regarding the nature of the conflict.

The mediation process is based on consent and agreement of the parties, and they can put the outcome of the process in a legally binding framework or not.

Our legal team at Ashtin can prepare a settlement agreement by the parties’ will, and this settlement is enforceable in any court of law.
