The Federal Constitution of the United Mexican States, since the reform of the article 17, in June 2008, introduced to the national legal order alternative dispute resolution mechanisms as a human right. Thus, alternative justice reaches its highest point, by virtue of the constitutional provision that establishes it mandatory for all areas of law. Following the guidelines established by the Constitution in this area, this article, through a critical analysis of the new Law of Alternative Justice in the State of Chihuahua as a case study, seeks to determine whether state regulations guarantee real Access to justice through alternative dispute resolution mechanisms.
