description The article describes mediation as one alternative dispute resolution method (ADR) available on the Polish insurance market. The author positions mediation among other ADRs on the market and describes the major features and advantages of mediation over traditional court proceedings. According to the author, mediation is very rarely used on the Polish insurance market. The vast majority of insurance mediation is conducted by the Mediation Centre of the Arbitration Court at the Polish Financial Supervision Authority. The author discusses the reasons for this including the relative newness of mediation as an ADR in Poland and a general lack of knowledge of it, the lack of system of comprehensive regulations for the profession of mediator, insurers’ attitude of “deny to the end” with regard to settling claims, and the mentalities the customs of their lawyers.
