Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) has been gaining unprecedented momentum, and will impact the legal professions at an accelerating pace in the coming years. Yet, for many practitioners, the topic remains quite abstract: how do these online procedures work, and how can they be used to protect rights and resolve disputes? It is crucial for legal professionals to familiarise themselves with the legal framework regarding ODR, to understand how ODR interacts with offline dispute resolution, and to have a clear view of how ODR will impact your future practice.

• To what extent can and should I use the out-of-court dispute settlement mechanisms under the DSA? Are they a form of arbitration? Will they preclude access to State courts?
