The Future of Litigation – Episode 1
Hearings in a remote world
What is the future of litigation? How will the digital revolution affect the conduct of disputes, and what does that mean for you? Season 1 of Sidebar – the new podcast from Taylor Wessing, which predicts the impact of the issues, innovations and trends facing the wider legal landscape – has the answers.
The first episode in our Future of Litigation season, "Hearings in a remote world", looks at the upsides, downsides and untapped potential of remote hearings. Together with leading barrister Anneliese Day QC, Disputes & Investigations partners Laurence Lieberman and Katie Chandler share their views on (and experiences in) the virtual courtroom, including:
- Key learnings from the first six months of remote hearings.
- The unexpected challenges and benefits of virtual proceedings, including client/advocate interaction, cross examination, evidence bundles and more.
- The role of remote hearings in a post-pandemic world.
