Virtual hearings
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 they became mainstream during the recent pandemic, virtual hearings 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.

“I think many doubt that any remote trials can take place, let alone over 42 days…
I’d like to thank Opus 2 and the technicians who have proved that it’s possible to carry out this long trial remotely, the assistance which they’ve provided I think has been invaluable and as a result, the proceedings have gone remarkably smoothly from a technical perspective
