Will the lawyer mediate with both parties?

First, can the attorney general settle?

Under normal circumstances, after accepting the entrustment of both parties, the attorney takes the initiative to negotiate with the other party. Mediation can be conducted at this time, but it is not allowed to issue a mediation book. If we get the conciliation statement, we can mediate in court.

Attorney-agent settlement refers to a dispute settlement method in which a lawyer accepts the entrustment of one party, actively negotiates with the other party and reaches a settlement agreement on the basis of mutual understanding. The characteristic of lawyer's agency settlement is that the two sides voluntarily dispose of substantive rights through consultation, and then the two sides reach an agreement to solve the problem.

Mediation means that under the auspices of the people's court, the people's mediation committee and relevant organizations, two or more parties negotiate voluntarily on the substantive rights and obligations of disputes, and through education and guidance, the parties reach an agreement to resolve disputes.

Second, the scope of the agent ad litem

Article 58 of the new Civil Procedure Law stipulates: "The parties and legal representatives may entrust one or two persons as agents ad litem. The following persons may be entrusted as agents ad litem:

(1) Lawyers and grassroots legal service workers;

(2) Close relatives or staff members of the parties concerned;

(three) citizens recommended by the community, units and relevant social groups where the parties are located. "

Compared with the original Civil Procedure Law, this revision has limited the scope of litigation agents, deleted the "other citizens authorized by the people's court" stipulated in the original Civil Procedure Law, and limited the scope of entrusted litigation agents to: lawyers and grassroots legal service workers; Close relatives or staff members of the parties concerned; Citizens recommended by the community, units and relevant social organizations where the parties are located.

The people's court authorizes other citizens to act as entrusted agents, which is a special institutional arrangement set in the procedural law under the specific historical conditions of the serious shortage of lawyers in China at the beginning of reform and opening up. However, with the continuous development of social economy, people's legal awareness has been continuously enhanced, and the number of lawyers has increased dramatically. This institutional arrangement has not adapted to the needs of social development. Moreover, judging from the judicial practice in recent years, the problems existing in the practice of other citizens acting as agents with the permission of the people's court are becoming more and more prominent.

Third, the principal-agent authority.

The authority of the principal-agent is divided into general authorization and special authorization.

General authorization means that an agent can only represent the principal in litigation, but has no right to dispose of litigation rights and substantive rights; In addition to representing the principal's lawsuit, a specially entrusted agent can also dispose of the litigation rights and substantive rights according to the special authorization of the principal, such as acknowledging, abandoning or changing the litigation request, making a settlement, filing a counterclaim or appeal, signing legal documents, and collecting execution money or performance money on behalf of the parties.

The above is about "Can the Attorney General settle?" Attorney-agent settlement refers to a dispute settlement method in which a lawyer accepts the entrustment of one party, actively negotiates with the other party and reaches a settlement agreement on the basis of mutual understanding.
