About the mediator
Dragoș Țurcan, attested mediator
The office works in Chișinău and throughout the Republic of Moldova, in Romanian, Russian and English, for private individuals and for companies.
Professional background
Dragoș Țurcan is a mediator attested by the Mediation Council of the Republic of Moldova and runs the Mediator's Office (Biroul Mediatorului) “Țurcan Dragoș” in Chișinău. All of the work is carried out under Law no. 137/2015 on mediation, the act that sets out what a mediator may do and, above all, what a mediator may not do.
The attestation followed the initial training in mediation required by law, with modules on communication, negotiation, conflict management and professional ethics. Continuing training remains a standing obligation of the profession, so he takes part regularly in refresher programmes and in exchanges of practice between mediators.
In his day-to-day work he conducts mediation sessions in family, civil, commercial and employment disputes, as well as in the categories of criminal cases for which the law allows mediation. He works with private individuals and with companies alike, and in disputes already before the court he cooperates readily with the parties' lawyers.
His way of working is calm and structured: each party is heard separately, then together, until the real interests come out from behind the positions being stated. He does not put forward ready-made solutions and does not assess anyone's chances in court. Sessions can be held at the office or online, in Romanian, Russian or English.

Qualifications and practice
Four things it is worth knowing before you sit down at the mediation table.
Attestation
Attested as a mediator by the Mediation Council of the Republic of Moldova and entered in the register of mediators. The attestation can be checked with the Council at any time.
Professional training
Initial training in mediation as required by law, followed by refresher programmes in negotiation, communication and the ethics of the profession.
Areas of practice
Family, civil, commercial and employment disputes, together with the categories of criminal cases for which the law allows mediation.
Working languages
Sessions are held in Romanian, Russian or English, whichever the parties choose, with no translator in between.
Working principles
The same four principles apply in every case, whoever the parties are and whatever is at stake.
Neutrality and impartiality
The mediator takes nobody's side, gives legal advice to neither party and imposes no solution. His role is to guide the discussion, not to sit in judgment on it.
Confidentiality
What is said in the session stays between the parties. The mediator cannot be heard as a witness about facts learned during the mediation.
Voluntary participation
Taking part is free. Either party may withdraw at any moment, without saying why, and no agreement can be imposed on anyone.
A solution that works
The aim is an understanding the parties can genuinely carry out, written down clearly. The mediation agreement (acord de mediere) can acquire enforceable force in the conditions set by law.
The work of the office in numbers
The numbers show how much work the office handles, not a promise for your case. Every dispute has its own pace and its own outcome.
