Arbitration procedure

You can involve the Arbitration Service if you are not satisfied with the responses you receive via the contact options above. This is not about determining who “wins” and who “loses”, the aim is to find a joint out-of-court solution to the problem with the help of the Arbitration Service.

The arbitration procedure is free of charge. You do not need to engage legal counsel.

You can find detailed information about the arbitration procedure on the Arbitration Service website (External link). This includes information on how the arbitration procedure works and how to submit a request for arbitration. Requests can also be submitted in “Leichte Sprache (External link)” (easy read language) or German Sign Language (External link).
