605. A mediator is chosen, directly or through a third person, by mutual agreement of the parties.
The mediator helps the parties to engage in dialogue, clarify their views, define the issues in dispute, identify their needs and interests, explore solutions and reach, if possible, a mutually satisfactory agreement. The parties may ask the mediator to develop with them a proposal to prevent or resolve the dispute.
The mediator is required to draw the parties’ attention to any conflict of interest or any situation that may be seen to create a conflict of interest or that may cast doubt on the mediator’s impartiality.
