It is important in the judicial system to have an alternative method of conflict resolution that can provide support for the problems that arise on a daily basis between parties, which can be resolved more quickly and even more effectively than through litigation. In the case of mediation, which is the subject of this paper, it is important to highlight its effectiveness in both judicial and extra-judicial modalities; it is a process in which the parties jointly seek a solution, with the mediator being a mere spectator or guide, which means that compliance with the agreement reached is made effective a posteriori in most cases, which defines it as an effective method.
