Mediation is a form of dispute resolution with the assistance of a neutral negotiator (mediator). It is based on the voluntary consent of the parties in order to reach a mutually acceptable solution.
The Federal Law of July 27, 2010 No. 193 FZ “On alternative procedure of settlement of disputes with the participation of an intermediary (mediation)
In Russia, if the mediation agreement was reached during the pretrial stage and certified by a notary, it has the force of an executive document. It helps to avoid considerable expenses on its enforcement.
Before the court if: 1. there is a conflict 2. you avoid litigation 3. you intend to resolve the case amicably
During court proceedings if: 1. a claim has been filed 2. protracted proceedings 3. you are unable to reach an agreement on your own
During enforcement of the court verdict if: 1. there is a court decision that neither party is satisfied with 2. a court decision/agreement is not implemented 3. enforcement proceedings have been instituted
The dispute is usually resolved in a few sessions in no more than a month:
out of court up to 180 day
in court up to 60 days
The mediator does not make a decision for you, but helps you find a mutually beneficial solution on your own. If you think that something has gone wrong, you have the right to interrupt the procedure at any time.
The implemented decisions correspond to your interests, and therefore have a high level of enforceability.
The arrangements will be clearly recorded in a mediation agreement.
Mediation reduces expenses on:
the analysis of judicial practice and legal norms of foreign countrie
hiring a judicial representative abroad
The parties bear the costs of mediation equally (unless otherwise agreed).
