The Mediation Memorandum of Understanding is a crucial document in New Zealand's alternative dispute resolution framework, used to formalize agreements reached through mediation. This document is particularly relevant when parties seek to resolve disputes outside the court system while maintaining legal enforceability of their agreement. It combines elements of both process documentation and substantive agreement, incorporating New Zealand legal requirements for mediated settlements. The MOU typically includes details about the mediation process, confidentiality obligations, specific terms agreed upon, and implementation plans. It's designed to be flexible enough to accommodate various types of disputes while providing sufficient structure to ensure enforceability under New Zealand law.
