How it works
How it works
1. Submit a Request for Mediation |
2. Appoint a Mediator |
3. Upload Your Documents and Submissions |
4. Remote Mediation Session |
5. Settlement Agreement |
| To commence mediation proceedings, you are required to submit a Request, which shall contain all the details set out in Article 5.1 of the eBRAM Mediation Rules, at eBRAM online case filing portal. | If the parties are unable to agree on a mediator, eBRAM will appoint one, with relevant and direct experience, from its Panel of Mediators. | In preparation for the mediation, the parties will upload all relevant documents onto the eBRAM Platform. All documents, including communications between the parties and the mediator will be stored securely and can be translated into other languages using the AI machine translation feature. | Mediation sessions will be conducted by videoconference on the eBRAM Platform.The video-conferencing system, integrated into the platform, offers among others the following features: • Private rooms for caucus • Breakout rooms for each party • Screen sharing |
If a settlement agreement is reached during the mediation process, the parties may use eBRAM’s e-signing system to sign the agreement directly on the platform. Once signed by both parties, it becomes legally binding. |
