This current article makes an attempt to provide a comparative analysis of the codification of legislation in various legal systems. The authors analyze the features of the systematization of ...legislation in the countries of the Romano-Germanic and Anglo-Saxon legal systems. Several general scientific methods and the methods of logical cognition are utilized in the study, including analysis and synthesis, systemic, functional and formal-logical approaches. Based on the results of the study, it can be concluded that it is the continental legal tradition that is most conducive to codification activity. The low volume of statutory legal norms in the Anglo-Saxon legal system impedes codification, but provides adequate regulatory flexibility. At the same time, recently in common law countries there has been a tendency to increase the share of statutory law in the regulation of public relations. In this regard, the importance of codification work increases in the systematization of legislation.
In the context of radical changes taking place in the field of jurisprudence, the topic of researching innovative forms of mediation, which has recently become a phenomenon of legal reality, becomes ...especially relevant.

According to the chosen topic, the purpose of this scientific article is to consider the modern system of training mediators in developed countries with different legal systems, their comparative analysis in the context of common methods and techniques of training mediators in the world practice, with further implementation of international experience of developed countries in Ukraine, as well as perspectives for applying mediation as an independent way of resolving legal disputes in Ukraine.
In accordance with the purpose and objectives of the research, the author of the scientific work has used a set of methods and techniques of scientific cognition, both general theoretical, special and scientific.

Using the historical method, the author has studied the stages of development of mediation in foreign countries with Anglo-Saxon and Romano-Germanic legal systems.

The peculiarities of the stages of the formation and further development of the institution of mediation in foreign countries with Anglo-Saxon and Romano-Germanic legal systems have been analyzed. Based on the generalization of leading international practices, the author has conducted a brief overview of the training of mediators in countries with different legal systems. The expediency of introducing international experience of developed countries in the training of mediators in Ukraine has been substantiated. It has been concluded that the legislative consolidation of the institution of mediation in Ukraine by the example of developed countries with Anglo-Saxon and Romano-Germanic legal systems will provide rapid and cost-effective out-of-court settlement of disputes, as well as improve and simplify access to justice. It has been proved that on the basis of the model of mediation development in developed foreign countries, its introduction in Ukraine will allow to bring the provisions of national justice closer to European standards; reduce state budget expenditures, as well as promote the development and enhancement of the legal culture of citizens.
The Author provides the results of a comparative analysis of two classically differentiated by legal scholars national legal systems – the American and Russian systems.
