Arbitration –
Alternative solutions
Mediation promotes consensus-based solutions, whereas arbitration offer binding decisions by private arbitration tribunals. Both methods can save time and thereby reduce costs.
Proceedings in other countries may be necessary, particularly when it comes to protecting intellectual property and trade secrets. Customized arbitration agreements offer greater control over the rules of procedure and the timeline, especially in international matters.
Potential benefits of alternative dispute resolution
- Time savings compared to regular court proceedings
- Confidentiality of the proceedings
- Self-directed process design
- Cost reduction through efficient processes
- Tailored for international cases
Examples
- Mediation Agreement and Out-of-Court Dispute Resolution
- Customized arbitration agreements
- Drafting and reviewing arbitration agreements and clauses to prevent litigation in the ordinary courts
- International Arbitration (ICC and Others)
Example of an arbitration case
- A company included an ambiguous arbitration clause in older contracts, the validity of which is being contested by the other party. Such disputes can be prevented as early as the drafting stage and during the review of existing contracts.
