02 / Perspective

Legal precision.
Commercial judgment.

Dr. Dampc’s work sits where international business, legal certainty and technology meet.

His work covers commercial, corporate and B2B contract disputes, including cross-border contracts, payment claims and the practical questions that determine whether a business can enforce its rights efficiently.

His academic and professional work connects legal doctrine with the decisions businesses must make under pressure. That combination shapes Judial’s approach: structured procedure, direct communication and a binding outcome.

How this connection is handled

Disclosure. Dr. Dampc discloses his connection to Judial in his Statement of Independence, which is part of every invitation. Where he is named in a Submission Agreement, both parties agree to his appointment with this connection disclosed.

Objection. Where he is not named in a Submission Agreement, either party may object to him within 7 days of receiving his Statement, without giving reasons. The objecting party pays an advance for the fees of the appointing authority. The German Arbitration Institute (DIS), acting as appointing authority on request and under its own guideline, then appoints an arbitrator who has no such connection. The fees of the DIS, and the additional remuneration of an arbitrator it appoints who is not a Judial Arbitrator under the arbitrators' fee table of the 2018 DIS Arbitration Rules (Annex 2, Paragraph 2.1), as in force at the time of the appointment, are borne by the parties (Articles 16(4), 19(4), 45(6) and Annex C Judial Arbitration Rules).

Challenges. A challenge against him is decided by the DIS. If the DIS declines or does not decide within 14 days, the challenging party may apply to the Higher Regional Court (Oberlandesgericht). He never decides on a challenge against himself (Article 20).

The DIS is not affiliated with Judial, has neither reviewed nor approved the Judial Arbitration Rules and has no agreement with Judial.

Undertaking. Dr. Dampc, and lawyers who practise jointly with him or share offices with him, do not act as counsel or adviser to anyone in the matter of a Judial arbitration in which he acted, at any time. Nor do they act for a party to such an arbitration, or its affiliates, in any other matter while the arbitration is pending and for two years after it ends (Article 19(5) Judial Arbitration Rules).
