Mediation

ZSCHUNKE Avocats / Rechtsanwälte / Avvocati is renowned for its mediation skills.

Ulrich ZSCHUNKE, a partner in the law firm ZSCHUNKE, has been active as a professional mediator since completing his training at the Centre for Mediation and Arbitration of Paris (CMAP) in 1998.

Mediation is an alternative method of dispute resolution which can be used at any juncture to facilitate negotiations between parties in order to help them find a solution to their dispute. To this end, an independent and impartial third party is appointed – the mediator. Recourse to mediation is possible even during judicial or arbitral proceedings or during enforcement of a judicial or arbitral ruling.

Ulrich ZSCHUNKE is regularly appointed as mediator in commercial and labour disputes in France and Germany. (cf. CV Ulrich Zschunke)
