In general, mediation is recommended every time the parties have maintained or continue to maintain lasting relations de facto or de jure.

On a legal scale, if mediation may apply to all areas of civil and commercial law, it can be used outside of any trial (conventional mediation) or in case of a trial (in all stages of the proceedings, which is suspended). It is particularly suitable in the following areas:

1. In commercial matters,
2. In real estate matters,
3. In family matters
