Indian Institute of Mediation
Mediations a mechanism for resolution of Commercial and related disputes has been in existence for more than a century. Globally as well as in India, adjudication of disputes by private neutral persons has always found preference in the fiscal world over the time consuming conventional adversarial mainstream Judicial System. Keeping pace with the fast- changing Commerce, breaking barriers of time and distance, Mediation too has been evolving steadily. Complexities of multi-party Contracts and involvement of information technology coupled with high fiscal stakes has lately led to several path breaking evolutions in conventional Mediation Law. It has now become imperative for every legal professional and law student to keep pace with these innovations and developments through continuous learning and education.
