What happens if an agreement is not reached in mediation?

Who is the mediator and what is their role?
The mediator is a neutral professional who facilitates communication between the parties. It does not impose solutions or make decisions, but rather helps the parties find an agreement through dialogue and negotiation.
Is the mediation process confidential?
Yes, everything discussed during mediation is confidential. Neither party may use information exchanged in mediation in a subsequent court proceeding, and the mediator is also required to maintain confidentiality.
How long does a mediation process last?
The duration of mediation depends on the complexity of the conflict and the willingness of the parties to reach an agreement. However, it is generally much faster than a judicial process, and can be resolved in a few sessions.
Does mediation have legal value?

What happens if one of the parties breaches the mediation agreement?
If the mediation agreement was formalized before a notary or ratified by a judge, it can be judicially enforced, just like a judgment. In the event of non-compliance, the affected party may seek enforcement of the agreement in court.
