Abstract: Despite of the existence of the institute and the term “mediation” in the Georgian historical sources, mediation in Georgian reality is thought to be a new institution, besides, doubts exist with regard to its possible success. Additionally, apart from the adoption of the law on mediation, a number of issues still need to be regulated. In the conditions of the institutionalization of mediation, its successful functioning, with other means of dispute resolution, is not only the subject of private interest during individual proceedings, but also the fact of public importance.
