What Does the Mediator Do?
All mediators are lawyers with at least 5 years seniority and they are affiliated to the Ministry of Justice in terms of mediation activity. The mediators carry out the negotiations between the parties by applying systematic techniques that bring the parties together to solve an existing dispute between the parties. They are independent neutral experts who offer a solution to the parties if they do not produce a solution to help the parties find a solution together.
Which disputes go to the mediator?
According to the Mediation Act, mediation can only be applied where the parties may be at peace, renounce their right and accept the allegations and where a court decision is not required. For example, the parties cannot take such matters to the mediator as a court order is required for the parties to be divorced. If the dispute is due to domestic violence and is not within the scope of conciliation in the Code of Criminal Procedure, it will not be appropriate for mediation. For example, you cannot go to mediator for crimes such as injuring with guns or causing death.
However, all loan agreements, purchase and sale contracts, consumer disputes, works contracts, rent disputes, workers' claims, maritime trade and insurance disputes, brand-patent disputes, divorce property disputes, malicious assault, unarmed intentional injury, insult, threat, housing Compensation due to the processing of offenses related to the violation of immunity such as disclosure of trade secret may be brought to the mediator.
