The Right Hon. Sir Geoffrey Vos sets out an online future for Civil Justice

by Simon Berney-Edwards

Speaking at London International Disputes Week this week, the Right Hon. Sir Geoffrey Vos told delegates why he is so committed to a wholly new online system for dispute resolution.

 

He concluded by saying "There will be a cohesive online funnel with a large number of cases starting online and being resolved by integrated Alternative Dispute Resolution mechanisms leaving a few to enter the court system – also online – and ultimate judicial resolution where necessary. This will, I emphasise, be transformational in terms of access to justice."

 

For Experts, it seems that Virtual Hearings and e-bundles are here to stay. But that there may also be additional changes around the corner in the way that some cases are handled in future.
