From Virtual Mediation Lab:
Collaboration software can expedite the arbitration process, as shown in this 11-min video by Tom Valenti, a professional mediator/arbitrator/trainer in Chicago, and Giuseppe Leone, founder of Virtual Mediation Lab, a project sponsored by ACR Hawaii. Specifically, an expert witness’s testimony may be illustrated by sharing of documents, drawing on photographs, and playing of videos. The case simulated was about a dryer fire, with participants – arbitrator, witness and two lawyers – in the USA, Canada and Greece.
UPCOMING FREE WEBINAR
Valenti and Leone believe that good video collaboration software, like the one used in their simulation, can save time and money in many arbitration cases. Therefore, in September and/or October they will present a free webinar, titled “Online Skills for Arbitration For Hearings in Domestic and International Cases”, for lawyers, arbitrators, advocates in arbitration, and ADR/ODR practitioners.
The date and time of their free webinar will be decided upon and announced later. Please fill out this Expression of Interest Form to receive an email invitation so you can attend on your PC, Mac, iPad, iPhone, Android tablet or smartphone.
