Mediation in civil and commercial matters

This procedure concerns the promotion and facilitation of mediation in civil and commercial disputes across the EU. It aims to provide an alternative dispute resolution mechanism, potentially leading to faster and more cost-effective solutions for parties involved in cross-border cases.

It affects individuals and businesses engaged in legal disputes within the EU, offering them a simpler way to resolve conflicts outside of traditional court proceedings. The goal is to enhance access to justice and reduce the burden on national courts.
