In a hybrid hearing, groups of participants will typically join from different physical locations such as a courtroom, law firms offices, and other spaces – referred to as ‘hubs’. In addition to the cost savings from reduced travel, hybrid hearings also allow law firms and their clients to adopt more sustainable litigation and arbitration practices to minimize their carbon footprint. Our unique multi-award-winning solutions are specifically designed to deliver a rich experience tailored for every participant and hub location and are fully managed and supported by our world-class services team.
