Accredited to International Standards

The Olive Branch Company is accredited by the Civil Mediation Council (CMC) and is a member of the International Mediation Institute (IMI). For you, that means the mediator handling your dispute follows recognised codes of practice, works to published standards of ethics and neutrality, and is accountable to a professional body.

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.

Commercial Mediation Professional

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.

You get the rigorous, emotionally intelligent dispute management we are known for, perfectly paired with the exact sector expertise your case requires.

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.

Rather than simply managing the mechanics of a meeting, we provide the context required to reach a result that is both fair and workable within your specific circumstances.

Legal Framework

Mediation in Morocco follows Law No. 95-17 on Arbitration and Conventional Mediation, adopted in June 2022 (Dahir n° 1-22-34 of 23 chaoual 1443, 24 May 2022). This law establishes a separate legal code for arbitration and mediation, independent from the Moroccan Code of Civil Procedure. It supplements and modernises the provisions found in Articles 306 to 327-54 of the Moroccan Code of Civil Procedure, as amended by Law No. 08-05 of 30 November 2007. Law No. 95-17 provides a detailed description of legal regimes applicable to both domestic and international arbitration and mediation, including electronic procedures, simplified exequatur processes for enforcing awards, and provisions for arbitration involving public entities. The law aims to provide national and international investors with a modern and flexible legal framework aligned with international standards. Family mediation follows the Moudawana (Family Code) of 2004, which includes mandatory conciliation procedures for divorce cases. An official French translation of Law 95-17 (Dahir No. 1-22-34) was published in Bulletin Officiel No. 7480 on 5 February 2026. A new Code of Civil Procedure enacted by Law No. 58.25 was published in Bulletin Officiel No. 7485 on 23 February 2026 and took effect on 24 August 2026, replacing the 1974 code; the mediation provisions continue to derive from Law 95-17.

While Morocco 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

Moroccan courts actively promote alternative dispute resolution. In family law matters, the Family Justice Section of the Court of First Instance conducts mandatory conciliation hearings for all divorce cases. The judge hears parties separately and together, seeks to understand causes of dispute, and proposes reconciliation solutions. If spouses have minor children, the Code provides for two conciliation attempts spaced at least thirty days apart. Where there are no children, a single attempt is sufficient. The judge may also refer parties to family mediation, a mechanism progressively developing in Morocco. For commercial disputes, judicial conciliation procedures are provided within courts. CIMAC (Casablanca International Mediation and Arbitration Centre) and other organisations offer mediation services alongside court proceedings. The distinction between domestic and international arbitration allows international arbitration to be subject to more flexible and permissive principles than those applied to domestic arbitration, even when the seat of arbitration is located in Morocco.

Mediator Regulations

Mediation in Morocco is primarily conducted through voluntary processes with neutral and impartial third parties. Law No. 95-17 establishes the framework for conventional mediation separate from arbitration. Mediators assist parties in finding negotiated solutions to their disputes. CIMAC provides mediation services according to its rules, which are available in multiple languages. The Moroccan International Chamber of Commerce has a dedicated arbitration institution through the Moroccan Court of Arbitration that may also handle mediation. Specific mediator accreditation and certification requirements are not extensively detailed in available sources, but professional mediators operate through institutional frameworks like CIMAC. The Ministry of Justice has supervised projects to integrate mediation into the Moroccan legal system, indicating ongoing development of mediator standards.

Cultural Approach

Morocco's cultural approach to mediation is influenced by its civil law legal system combined with Islamic law principles, particularly in family matters governed by the Moudawana (Family Code). The mandatory conciliation process in divorce cases reflects cultural emphasis on reconciliation and family harmony. Family mediation is progressively developing in Morocco, showing increasing acceptance of consensual dispute resolution methods. The legal system's distinction between domestic and international arbitration demonstrates openness to international standards while maintaining cultural sensitivity. The involvement of religious and customary principles in family law disputes reflects integration of traditional dispute resolution mechanisms with modern legal frameworks. The Ministry of Justice's support for mediation integration indicates institutional commitment to alternative dispute resolution aligned with cultural values.

Typical Costs

Court fees for family matters are modest, ranging from 150 to 300 dirhams depending on the type of procedure. Commercial mediation costs through institutions like CIMAC follow their fee schedules, though specific rates are not detailed in available sources. The cost savings compared to litigation are significant as mediation avoids lengthy court proceedings, especially in major cities like Casablanca, Rabat, and Marrakech where court backlogs significantly lengthen timelines. Judicial conciliation procedures within courts are typically included in court fees. The emphasis on alternative dispute resolution methods aims to provide cost effective solutions for businesses and individuals. CIMAC and other institutions offer structured fee schedules for their mediation services.

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.

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.

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.
