The Law Society has been approved as a Recognised Accreditation Provider (RAP) under the Australian Mediator and Dispute Resolution Accreditation Standards (AMDRAS).
All existing Law Society and National Mediator Accreditation System (NMAS) accredited mediators will continue to be NMAS accredited until the later of their next renewal date or 31 December 2025 and will be contacted in relation to their accreditation under AMDRAS.
The Law Society’s website, Panel of Mediators and Panel of Arbitrators will be updated shortly to reflect the changes. The AMDRAS Standards and the National Register of Registered AMDRAS Practitioners are available.
We will be providing an update and further information on how to apply for accreditation shortly. In the meantime, if you have any queries please email advocacy@lawsocietywa.asn.au.
