Description
Summary:Mediation has represented and represents an alternative for state justice that impartially solves a conflict between two parties. Mediation, as it’s generally known today, appeared in Europe in ‘90s through the American branch, and imposed through Directive CE / 52/2008 of the European Parliament, that all Member States need to take steps in including the mediation in civil and commercial cases where issues appear most frequently related to the parties' affiliation to different and cross-border legal systems. In Romania, the mediation institution operates based on Law no. 196/2006 in regards to mediation and mediator profession, and in the Republic of Moldova based on Law no. 137/2015 in regards to mediation. I firmly believe that that the procedure for mediation in commercial disputes needs to be adapted, considering the fact that is a special type of mediation, as the mediator is required to possess certain knowledge and qualities specific to this field. I, therefore, consider that the specific legislation is insufficiently regulated, and due to this context, the institution of commercial mediation is in a vegetative state at this moment.
