Mediation Clauses

A mediation clause can save companies millions in litigation costs. The Mediation Institute advises on the application and implementation of mediation clauses in contract terms.

Make sure in advance that possible disputes get solved through mediation before they end up in court or arbitration. The Mediation Institute has designed mediation clauses that you can use for free in your contracts.

 

MI Mediation clause – Regular

In the event of a dispute or disagreement relating to this contract, the parties agree to seek settlement by mediation arranged by Mediationsinstituttet (The Danish Mediation Institute, www.mediationsinstiuttet.dk), in accordance with its rules of procedure.

If any party is of the opinion that a dispute or disagreement has arisen, the party may file a request for mediation proceedings with Mediationsinstituttet.

The mediation does not prevent any party from using other legal remedies such as injunctions and court proceedings, or from initiating legal processes to avoid expiry of limitation periods.

If the dispute is not settled by mediation, any party is entitled to seek settlement of the dispute through the Danish courts.

 

MI Mediation clause – Project mediation

The Parties agree to use project mediation to support the cooperation in the implementation of the Parties’ joint project, which is covered by this Agreement.

No later than 7 days from the conclusion of this agreement, the parties must contact Mediationsinstituttet (the Danish Mediation Institute, www.mediationsinstituttet.dk) for the appointment of one or more project mediators to initiate project mediation in accordance with the institute’s guidelines for project mediation.

 

MI Mediation clause – Platform to business

Any dispute or disagreement relating to this contract must first be addressed through the complaint procedure included in the contract.

If the dispute cannot be resolved completely through the complaint procedure, it may be referred by [the business user] to mediation arranged by Mediationsinstituttet (the Danish Mediation Institute, www.mediationsinstituttet.dk) in accordance with its rules of procedure.

To initiate mediation, one party must give written notice of the dispute to the other party or parties, and then file a request for mediation proceedings with Mediationsinstituttet.

The mediation does not prevent any party from using other legal remedies such as injunctions and court proceedings, or from initiating legal processes to avoid expiry of limitation periods.

If the dispute is not settled after completion of mediation, any party is entitled to seek settlement of the dispute through the Danish courts.
