IACSDRD

Professional and impartial mediating services to solve business and other disputes

Besides arbitration procedures (arbitrations) the IACSDRD offers also professional and impartial mediating services to solve business and other disputes. Mediation is based on the fact that a third, independent, person the so called mediator steps in between two disputing parties and becomes the mediator of a conciliatory compromise of the disputed issues and problems arising between entrepreneurs, institutions, companies or individuals. The essential condition is that the mediator must be impartial and cannot be associated with any of the disputing parties. Mediation is a process, for which the parties decide on voluntary basis; the mediator is responsible for the course and the parties themselves are responsible for the contents and the results of the process. Besides the principle of voluntariness the mediation process is based also on other principles. These include, for example, trust, cooperation, search for new solutions, confidentiality, freedom of decisions or neutrality.

Mediation enables to attain:
   consideration of interests, to which attention would not be paid in an ordinary judicial settlement
   the dispute will be evaluated not only from the legal viewpoint but also from the viewpoint of possibilities and the actual status
   consequences of conflicts and disputes, which can be settled by out-of-court settlement, will be minimized
   possibilities of finding non-bureaucratic and flexible solutions of conflicts and disputes
   the conflict solving by conciliatory out-of court settlement
   speed, flexibility and low costs

The mediation process objective is finding such solution of conflicts and disputes, which would respond to the interests and needs of the individual parties. This can be attained by mutual sharing of the causes and knowledge of the entire conflict background and finding a new solution, which is frequently impossible for the parties on their own, without a mediator.
