This article explores the limits established for mediators, mediatees, and attorneys regarding their conduct in mediation hearings. To this end, the article observes the standards established by the National Council of Justice (CNJ), to be adhered to by public and private chambers. It also considers the guidelines for attorneys, whose limits are limited to compliance with the fundamental rules stipulated by the Code of Ethics and Discipline of the Brazilian Bar Association and Law No. 8,906/1994 (Statute of the Bar Association). Finally, it discusses the flaws that may permeate the sessions if the conduct stipulated for each of the mediation participants is disregarded, the consequences of which may lead to the annulment of the agreement reached.
