Daniel Rejman (born 1971) graduated from the Faculty of Law of Charles University in Prague (1995). He gained legal practice at the law firm Sodomka & Souček, Prague. After passing the bar exam, he became a member of the Czech Bar Association (ČAK) and has been providing legal services as an attorney since 1999. He first worked as a cooperating attorney at the law firm Císař, Češka, Smutný a spol., Prague, and in 2002 he founded his own law firm providing legal services to domestic and foreign clients, business and non-business entities, and legal and natural persons. He deals mainly with commercial and corporate law, real estate, investments and acquisitions, management consulting, contractual agenda, and judicial and extrajudicial dispute resolution. He deepens his knowledge at professional seminars and legal conferences (e.g. Trademarks - Industrial Property Office, Arbitration - The Chartered Institute of Arbitration London in cooperation with the Czech Bar Association, Joint-venture - International Bar Association, Law Firm Management - AIJA).

 

In 2011, he successfully completed a European pilot grant project organized by the Czech Chamber of Lawyers in cooperation with the Brussels Bar Association and focused on the implementation of mediation in the Czech legal environment. He further deepened his knowledge of mediation as an alternative method of dispute resolution in a follow-up seminar on Commercial Mediation organized by the Czech Chamber of Lawyers again in cooperation with the Brussels Bar Association. He expanded his knowledge of intellectual property issues thanks to a course in the form of a specialization study for mediators from among lawyers organized by the Industrial Property Office in cooperation with the IP Mediation Center Prague, a registered institute. He also completed a Franchising Course for IP Mediators organized by the Czech Franchising Association. As a member of the ADR (alternative dispute resolution) section of the Czech Chamber of Lawyers, he works in the examination panels for mediation exams organized by the Ministry of Justice and the Czech Chamber of Lawyers. He speaks English.

 

Motto: "Why judge with an uncertain outcome and rely on others when you can directly influence the matter and make a decision based on your needs and possibilities, which you know best."

 

From my experience, I know that the best decisions are usually those that you can reach on your own. However, sometimes the path to such a decision leads only and only with the help of an experienced mediator who is able to show the matter from a different perspective and in a different light. Therefore, do not rely too much on the decisions of others. Such decisions often do not address your true needs and interests and may not even be functional. It is safer and more certain to seek a solution through mediation, where the mediator does not decide, like a judge or arbitrator, for the parties in the dispute, but "only" helps the parties with his knowledge, experience and, last but not least, attentive perception of their individual case and various mediation skills proven in practice, so that the parties themselves actively reach a resolution to their disputes and conflicts.

 

Chytří se zbytečně nehádají a nesoudí, ale řeší své spory efektivně v mediaci, a to dohodou založenou na principech rozumu, slušnosti, nadhledu a respektu nejen vůči druhým, ale i vůči sobě.

 

I would be honored to assist you on your journey to reaching a mediation agreement and guide you through the mediation process as a functional and proven alternative capable of resolving your commercial or IP dispute.
