What Is My Advantage When I Settle Through Mediation? How Do I Choose A Mediator? Is Mediation An Expensive Method?
HOW DO I CHOOSE THE MEDIATOR?
The parties can choose the mediator from the current list of mediators on the official website of our Department at www.adb.adalet.gov.tr.
IS MEDIATION AN EXPENSIVE METHOD?
Until the conclusion of the process, the parties do not have to pay any fees in the mediation process, unlike the lawsuit, and they do not pay expenses such as notification, expert witness, witness and discovery. Only, according to the duration of the activity, the mediator is paid a fee in accordance with the Mediation Minimum Fee Tariff. In addition, if a special meeting place, etc. is required, these costs must be paid. If the parties will participate in this process with their lawyers, they will also pay a fee to their lawyers.
WHAT IS MY ADVANTAGE WHEN I SETTLE THROUGH MEDIATION?
You will save all the expenses you will have to incur during the lawsuit (such as postage, expert witness, discovery, etc. expenses, travel expenses) and the time you will have to allocate to the courthouse by limiting your other work due to the trial.

The method and solution style agreed upon by the parties is essential and flexible.
