Virtual Hearings for Legal Proceedings

Overview

In a virtual hearing, all the participants, including the judge or tribunal members, join remotely (from anywhere in the world), using a secure solution that typically includes video conferencing, shared electronic bundle, transcription and evidence presentation. Although virtual hearings became mainstream during the recent pandemic, they now offer an alternative to in-person hearings to minimise cost, increase efficiency and reduce the environmental impact of dispute resolution proceedings.

Our unique, multi-award-winning solutions will help you conduct hassle-free virtual dispute resolution proceedings.
