Another procedure for resolving and ending a conflict is arbitration. I offer to conduct such proceedings online, specifically within my specialist field of information technology law/IT law. I have extensive procedural practice and expertise in this area. I obtained the qualification to hold judicial office with the Second State Examination.
Arbitration proceedings typically provide a fast, confidential (non-public), and often cost-effective solution. They also result in an enforceable title — including abroad.
Additional advantages of my service include:
– The proceedings take place online (with state courts, you can hardly influence this effectively).
– The proceedings can also be conducted in English.
– You get an arbitrator who is familiar with IT law and the technical background.
– Compared to state courts, the duration of proceedings is typically only a fraction of the time.
In principle, arbitration proceedings are governed by Sections 1025 et seq. of the German Code of Civil Procedure (ZPO). However, many rules of the arbitration procedure can be individually negotiated and adapted to the specific case.
An arbitration agreement might look like this, for example:
Arbitration Agreement
between
X-GmbH
– hereinafter “X-GmbH” –
and
Mr. A
– hereinafter “Mr. A” –
(1) X-GmbH and Mr. A entered into the purchase agreement attached as Annex 1 concerning a ________________ on _____________ (hereinafter the “Agreement”).
(2) X-GmbH and Mr. A hereby agree that all disputes arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be finally resolved by an arbitral tribunal, to the exclusion of the state courts.
(3) The arbitrator shall be Rechtsanwalt Wilko Bauer, Angermünde, subject to his consent. The hearing shall take place online.
(4) The provisions of Book 10 of the German Code of Civil Procedure shall apply to the entire arbitration proceedings.
(5) Further specifying agreements: None.

This agreement is only a template — it should be adapted to the individual case. Please get in touch with me so that we can work out together how your situation can best be handled.
