In today’s modern legal environment, the role and significance of mediation as an effective means of peacefully resolving problematic legal relations in civil procedural law are steadily increasing. This study examines the legal foundations of the mediation process, its advantages and limitations compared to judicial proceedings, as well as the ways of introducing and developing mediation within the legislation of the Republic of Uzbekistan. Special attention is given to recent legislative amendments and their impact on the development of mediation as a legal institution. The research analyses how these changes contribute to improving the effectiveness, accessibility, and reliability of mediation in practice. Using a comparative legal method, the study contrasts national reforms with international experience, identifying common trends, best practices, and distinctive features of Uzbekistan’s approach. The analysis reveals the practical importance of mediation in reducing court caseloads, promoting consensual dispute resolution, and protecting the interests of the parties through flexible and confidential procedures. The findings demonstrate that the adopted legislative reforms represent logical, consistent, and well-structured measures aimed at transforming mediation into a genuine, strong, and trustworthy alternative dispute resolution mechanism in Uzbekistan, aligned with modern global standards and legal development trends..
