In principle, Kapellmann and Partner Rechtsanwälte mbB are prepared to take part in a dispute resolution process mediated by the Dispute Resolution Board of the Bar.
In the event of a dispute over the performance of a contract, with respect to so-called “online service provision agreements”, users can also make use of new alternatives for out-of-court dispute resolution. Contracts that are entered between a lawyer and a client, who is a consumer, through the website of the lawyer or in some other electronic manner, are online service provision agreements. In the event of a dispute arising out of such an “online lawyer agreement”, the consumer may, in seeking an out-of-court settlement, use the platform for online dispute settlement (OS platform) of the European Commission. The dispute resolution will be performed out of court and exclusively online.
You can find the platform for online dispute settlement of the European Commission at: http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/.
