Mediator SBA

Acquisition and requirements of the title Mediator SBA

To promote mediation as a lasting method of out-of-court dispute resolution, the Swiss Bar Association (SBA) created the title Mediator SBA in 2002.

This title is held by independent and impartial attorneys, who are able to help you along the negotiation path in resolving a conflict by your own efforts and by mutual agreement. You can find these specialists under "Locate an Attorney" in the Attorneys Directory.

The prerequisite for earning this title is appropriate training in mediation, comprising prescribed practice and supervision components. Beyond this, attorney-specific additional training is demanded. Another condition is the obligation to participate in continuing education.

The Swiss Bar Association publishes Guidelines for Mediation on its website.
