ETHICS WITHIN THE MEDIATION PROCESS
Mattox Hair, Sharon Press, and Brooks Rathet
I. Introduction
Initially drafted in 1994, the American Bar Association, the American Arbitration Association, and them Association for Conflict Resolution adopted the current revised Model Standards of Conduct for Mediators in 2005. The Model Standards include nine standards for mediators, including self-determination, impartiality, conflicts of interest, competence, confidentiality, quality of the process, advertising and solicitation, fees and other charges and advancement of the mediation process. Patterned after Florida’s Mediator Ethics Advisory Committee, the ABA Section of Dispute Resolution Committee on Mediator Ethical Guidance provides advisory responses to requests for ethical guidance based on the Model Standards of Conduct for Mediators (2005).
