The application of mediation in family courts

Considering that the family is the main pillar of society, where the citizen's main personal relationships begin, which will project them into coexistence with others, it needs to be preserved even if conflicts arise. With this in mind, this paper offers an alternative that aims to minimise wear and tear during the process of resolving conflicts of a family nature, so that the after-effects are not capable of damaging relationships in any way. Mediation, in addition to minimising the impact of conflicts, can help to restructure what has been damaged, providing more autonomy and direct participation in resolving family disputes, as well as saving money for the courts, since the process is shorter and requires fewer collaborators to process.
