Part of the Ethics in Adjudicative Justice – The Changing Landscape Webinar Series.

The number of self-represented parties in adjudicative hearings continues to rise. This is no longer a trend. As an adjudicator, you must ensure you are able to run a fair and efficient hearing, while also ensuring the parties are heard. When faced with a party who is self-represented, how do you balance these sometimes competing interests? For counsel, how can you create a constructive working relationship with the self-represented party, without compromising your clients’ position?

Referencing real-life case scenarios, this expert panel will discuss:

  • The changing adjudicative landscape
  • Strategies for managing the hearing
  • Educating self-reps vs. advising – where is the line?
  • Best practices when communicating with self-reps
  • Strategies to ensure efficient and fair hearings
  • What should you do if the self-rep’s capacity is in question?

Plus! You will receive unlimited 90-day online access to program archive. You will be able to watch when, and where you choose along with the ability to review any key points.
