Mediation - key characteristics of mediation clauses

Niek Peters, dispute resolution partner (Amsterdam) and Sascha Kuhn, dispute resolution partner (Düsseldorf) discuss the topic of mediation clauses. They ruminate on how often clients opt for mediation in their dispute resolution clauses, preferred types of clause, and trends in parties adopting mediation as a voluntary process rather than an obligation. The podcast also highlights practical considerations when drafting clauses, pitfalls to be aware of during the mediation process, and the design of mediation clauses in international contracts.
