Dispute resolution



Disputes may arise in business matters and will be an unwelcome disturbance for the parties to the dispute, which can be both costly and resource-intensive in general.

It will often be the best solution for disputes to be resolved outside the court. When this is not possible, CO:PLAY has an experienced team of litigators who can conduct cases in arbitration in Denmark or abroad, in all courts in Denmark, including the Supreme Court and by all relevant boards, e.g. the Domain Complaints Board, the Press Board and the Consumer Complaints Board.

Our areas

Lawsuits

CO:PLAY's litigation lawyers can conduct all civil cases in the Danish courts. As a starting point, all lawsuits start in the district court and, with some exceptions, can be appealed to the High Court. If a case can be brought before the High Court or a third instance is granted, a case can be appealed to the Supreme Court.

Cases before the High Courts and the Supreme Court require a special right to appear. CO:PLAY's litigation lawyers have the right to appear before both the High Court and the Supreme Court.

The litigation process itself can be both long and resource-intensive, and it is therefore crucial that the case is streamlined and processes are streamlined to avoid unnecessary resources and costs.

Arbitration

CO:PLAY's litigation lawyers have many years of experience in conducting cases before arbitration boards and arbitration institutes. In particular, we have experience with arbitration in IT cases and other cases involving technology, media and entertainment.

Optimally, our advice starts even before a dispute arises, where we can assist in drafting clauses and risk assessments to prevent disputes from arising and protect our clients in the best possible way if this is unavoidable.

We advise on all elements of arbitration and it is crucial for us to tailor cases to meet our clients' financial and timing needs.

To learn more about arbitration, please contact Reza Ahmadian or Michael Brandt.

Injunction proceedings

CO:PLAY's litigation lawyers conduct injunction cases in the Danish courts, e.g. when rights are infringed and there is a need for a fast and effective remedy to protect these rights. Several of our litigators have conducted a large number of injunction cases and they have extensive experience in the strategic planning of the use of the remedy and the process.

Injunctive relief cases start in the District Court or the Maritime and Commercial Court, and can be appealed to the High Courts and in very special cases also to the Supreme Court.

An injunction case must usually be followed by a civil trial, where a court must confirm that there were grounds for an injunction.
