Abstract

Mediation, as a means of alternative dispute resolution, can play a leading role in mitigating family conflicts. In judicial processes regulating the exercise of parental responsibilities, the possibility of intervention by public or private mediation services is recognized in the law, as a manifestation of the legislative preference for consensual solutions. What is intended is for both parties to seek the solution that best suits the best interests of the child, considering their concrete family reality. This study, in addition to raising awareness of the possibility of family mediation intervening in judicial processes regulating the exercise of parental responsibilities, aims to highlight the importance of mediation as an effective instrument in drafting agreements that promote parental co-responsibility. Investigating how family mediation can influence the dynamics of parenting, examining the effectiveness of agreements established during the process of regulating parental responsibilities and the advantages that result from their adoption is what we propose to develop. It is concluded that there is a pressing need to create key strategies that encourage access to mediation, raising awareness among forensic professionals about its impact on the successful fulfillment of what has been agreed regarding the terms under which parental responsibilities should be governed.
