Commercial mediation can be used in resolution of all sorts of commercial conflicts and, as a general rule, in all matters that require a swift and pragmatic solution in a confidential environment. Contrary to usual means of dispute resolution, mediation favors the emergence of solutions that exceed the framework of expressed positions and enables future commercial relationships to be preserved and may even transform a dispute into a commercial opportunity.
Mediation clauses – often combined with an arbitration agreement – are generally included in shareholder agreements and other long-standing commercial contracts.
We are at your disposal to advise on the drafting of such clauses and are also able to assist, individually as mediator, or, together, as co-mediators, as well as to intervene as collaborative lawyer and/or coach.
