Sant Julià de Lòria, Sant Julià de Lòria
For businesses and individuals in Sant Julià de Lòria, The Olive Branch offers professional mediation services that combine global expertise with local understanding. We help resolve commercial, family, and workplace disputes in ways that preserve relationships and achieve lasting resolutions.
Accredited to International Standards
The Olive Branch Company operates under the highest regulatory frameworks in dispute resolution. We are fully accredited by the Civil Mediation Council (CMC) and hold membership with the International Mediation Institute (IMI), ensuring world-class standards of practice, ethics, and neutrality in every mediation we conduct.
Commercial Mediation with Clarity & Purpose
At The Olive Branch, we specialise in resolving complex conflicts with dignity, fairness, and real world results. Whether it's a commercial contract dispute, a leadership breakdown, or a cross cultural misunderstanding, we create a safe, neutral space where difficult conversations can move forward.
Tailored Expertise, Scaled for Your Dispute
No two disputes are identical, and highly technical conflicts demand specific, localised expertise. At The Olive Branch Company, we combine the personal accountability, agility, and dedicated focus of a boutique practice with the technical reach of a major institution.
While our mediations are led by our core panel, we operate through a leading, trusted network of specialists globally. Where a dispute hinges on highly technical, sector specific legal or structural nuances, such as complex construction parameters, intellectual property boundaries, or intricate corporate M&A frameworks, we engage with vetted industry experts to ensure the most appropriate resolution.
Industry Informed Resolution
Conflict in critical environments requires more than just legal theory, it requires real world battle scars and judicial precision. Our approach is anchored by over 30 years of global commercial leadership combined with a decade of judicial experience. This dual perspective allows us to cut through emotional noise, analyse risk with absolute clarity, and help you engineer strategic, final resolutions that protect both your financial position and your reputation.

Legal Framework
Andorra has Law 3/2018 of 22 March 2018 on mediation, providing comprehensive regulation for mediation in civil, commercial, family, labor, and administrative matters. The law establishes the Mediation Commission and regulates mediator registration, continuing education, deontological norms, and fees. Decree 262/2022 of 22 June 2022 approved the Regulation of the Mediation and Orientation Service of the Administration of Justice, a public and free service located at the Seat of Justice. The Regulation of 4 May 2022 established the mediation service of the Chamber of Commerce, Industry and Services of Andorra called Centre for Resolution of Business Conflicts (CRCE). The law requires companies operating in Andorra to inform the public about ADR possibilities.
While Andorra operates under this legal framework, The Olive Branch's remote mediators bypass local court backlogs by providing swift, confidential, and mutually agreed-upon resolutions online.
Court System
The Mediation and Orientation Service of the Administration of Justice is a public and free service located at the Seat of Justice, providing mediation and orientation services. Courts may refer parties to this service. The law establishes that mediation agreements have the same enforceability as court judgments. The Chamber of Commerce's CRCE provides commercial mediation services. The court system supports ADR through the legal framework and the free public mediation service.
Mediator Regulations
The Mediation Commission is a technical body attached to the ministry competent in justice matters, with functions related to conventional and judicial mediation. The Commission includes a lawyer specialized in mediation from the Bar Association. The Register of Mediators is maintained by the ministry. Mediators must complete continuing education requirements. Decree of 11 December 2019 approved the Regulation on continuing education, deontological norms, and mediation fees. The CRCE maintains its own register of mediators for commercial mediation.
Cultural Approach
Andorra's cultural approach to dispute resolution reflects its position as a small European principality with a strong business orientation. The establishment of ATPA in 2018 demonstrates a modern approach to ADR aligned with international standards. The emphasis on efficiency, speed, and reasonable costs reflects business-friendly values. The choice of arbitration as a foundation for the legal framework indicates a preference for predictable, professional dispute resolution. Andorra's multilingual environment supports international arbitration practices.
Typical Costs
The ATPA provides a costs calculator and tables relating to costs to ensure transparency and predictability. Costs are determined based on the value and complexity of the dispute. The ATPA aims to resolve disputes at reasonable cost. The costs calculator and tables are available on the ATPA website. The full financial autonomy of ATPA allows for efficient cost management. Specific fee amounts are determined through the official cost structure based on dispute characteristics.

Our Mediation Process
The Initial Consultation
We meet with you to understand your situation, what matters to you, and what justice looks like for you. You tell us your story in your own words, and we explain how mediation could help you achieve it.
Preparation and Contextual Review
We prepare thoroughly so you don't have to. We review the relevant information privately, ensuring we understand the full context before bringing everyone together. You'll know what to expect and can prepare for the conversation ahead.
Setting the Environment
We create a confidential space where you can speak freely and be heard on equal terms. You'll have the opportunity to speak directly to those who need to hear your experience, and we ensure everyone is treated with dignity and respect.
The Facilitated Negotiation
We facilitate a dialogue where you can seek accountability and ask for the change you need to see. You remain in control of the outcome while we help craft solutions that fit your specific circumstances rather than applying a standard approach.
Finalising the Resolution
We conclude with a clear agreement that reflects what matters to you. The resolution is shaped by your needs and gives you a practical path forward, with the understanding that the experience of being heard is as important as the outcome itself.
