    The present study aims to analyze the applicability of mandatory mediation in resolving family, childhood, and adolescence conflicts from a legal and judicial perspective. Its specific objectives are to legally and judicially substantiate the applicability of mandatory mediation in judicial processes involving family, childhood, and adolescence to promote more sustainable and satisfactory agreements; to determine the benefits and challenges of promoting mandatory mediation in these judicial processes; and to establish the legal limits and scope of mandatory mediation in resolving family conflicts from both legal and social perspectives. The research employs a qualitative, descriptive approach, combining bibliographic, documentary, and field methods, using analytical-synthetic and inductive techniques. Interviews were conducted with judges, mediators, and lawyers specialized in family law, guided by a structured interview instrument. Findings reveal that mediation, recognized under Ecuadorian law, can effectively alleviate judicial congestion and foster faster, cost-effective solutions centered on the best interests of the child. However, the mandatory nature of mediation presents tensions with the principle of voluntariness, essential for ensuring genuine agreements and protecting fundamental rights. Comparative experiences from Argentina and Chile indicate that mandatory mediation can expedite processes and reduce judicial burdens but requires a clear regulatory framework, well-trained mediators, and social acceptance to overcome resistance and maintain process quality. In conclusion, mandatory mediation in family, childhood, and adolescence matters in Ecuador is feasible and advantageous, provided public policies are designed to balance efficiency, rights protection, and respect for parties’ autonomy and voluntariness, thereby contributing to a more agile, effective justice system focused on social peace.
