Legal News (Mediation)

On Friday 13 April 2018 Hayes solicitors sponsored the Irish Commercial Mediation Association (ICMA) conference entitled “The Mediation Act 2017 - A game changer?”, which took place in The Stephen’s Green Hibernian Club.

On 2 October 2017 the Mediation Bill 2017 was signed into law by the President and the Act came into full effect on 1 January 2018. The arrival of the Mediation Act 2017 is much welcomed and should help promote the benefits of mediation and increase its use in civil litigation proceedings.
