Teleconferencing and videoconferencing are hot topics in today’s environment. Legal professionals are using this form of communication now more than ever, which heightens the exposure to cybersecurity threats. “User hygiene” should be top-of-mind to ensure that mediations and arbitrations are not subject to attack by hackers.

The program will provide a comprehensive overview to virtual mediation and arbitration, including guidelines and protocols regarding cybersecurity for virtual hearings, and a review of available technology and choice of platforms.

Attendees will learn best practices and pitfalls that occur during mediations and how to maximize the possibility of achieving a resolution through the mediation. Issues unique to the virtual ADR process in terms of negotiations and security unique to videoconferencing technology will also be addressed.

Now that we are all faced with the reality of social distancing, it is imperative that we use technology to continue working while adhering to the government regulations. Video conferencing and tele-conferencing is fully operational enabling mediators to continue providing seamless alternative dispute resolution (ADR) services.

Judge DiBlasi will provide participants with an introduction to mediation and virtual alternative dispute resolution (ADR), its benefits, cybersecurity and enhanced security protocols and much more.
