The purpose of this study is to examine current issues in the development of mediation in the Republic of Kazakhstan. In this article, the authors provide an overview of the history of its development, analyzing the concept of mediation. The history of the Kazakh people highlights the similarities and differences between the court of judges a type of justice that includes elements of mediation–and the modern judicial system. A number of proposals are also made for improving the work of mediators: establishing the scope of application of social and commercial mediation, creating conditions for universal access to mediation; defining the forms of mediator activity and developing a corps of competent mediators; and adopting an ethical code for mediators of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The current state of mediation allows us to draw the following conclusions: firstly, the provisions on mandatory mediation procedures for certain categories of disputes, for example, amendments to the Civil Procedure Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan on debt collection; Secondly, increasing the state fee for filing lawsuits; thirdly, legislatively establishing mediator remuneration below the state fee, at a multiple of the minimum monthly calculation index (MCI).
