What are the arbitration and mediation laws?

Arbitration: 

A private process in which an independent third party, such as an authorized person (the arbitrator or tribunal), hears evidence and makes a binding decision (award). It is formal, akin to a court trial, and the result is generally legally enforceable, similar to a court judgment

Mediation:

A collaborative process where a neutral third party (the mediator) helps disputing parties reach a mutually acceptable settlement. The mediator does not impose a decision; rather, the process is voluntary and confidential, aiming for a (win-win) outcome by agreement.
