Extrajudicial Conciliation in Peru: An Effective Path to Resolve Disputes
Peruvian Conciliation Law No. 26872 and Implementing Regulations.
Under Law 26872, civil lawsuits involving disposable property claims are inadmissible without prior conciliation attempt.
Certain, express, and enforceable conciliation clauses qualify as direct enforcement titles.
Retaining legal counsel during conciliation hearings ensures airtight, liquid drafting free of enforcement loopholes.
Procedural Criteria & Legal Rationale
Prior extrajudicial conciliation is mandatory in Peru before filing civil claims over disposable rights such as leases, debt collection, or child support.
A conciliation record containing full or partial agreement holds the exact same legal enforcement authority as a final court judgment.
If breached, creditors proceed directly to expedited enforcement without re-litigating the underlying dispute.
