The Compromise Agreement (dading/transaction) is a fundamental legal instrument in Belgian civil law used to formalize the resolution of disputes between parties. It serves as a crucial tool for documenting settlements across various contexts, including commercial, employment, and corporate disputes. This type of agreement is specifically governed by the Belgian Civil Code and requires certain essential elements to be valid, including clear identification of the dispute and mutual concessions by the parties. The document is commonly used when parties wish to avoid or terminate litigation, resolve employment disputes, settle commercial disagreements, or conclude any other type of conflict where parties are willing to reach a mutually acceptable solution. It must be carefully drafted to ensure enforceability under Belgian law and typically includes provisions for confidentiality, tax implications, and specific performance obligations.
