[Solved] Remote First Dispute Resolution Appointment

Hi All

Hope you’re all keeping well and plodding along, I know the majority on here might be going through difficult circumstances, but hang on in there, always light at the end of the tunnel..

Hoping for some advice - I’ve got my first dispute resolution appointment scheduled next Wednesday, been informed today that this has now moved to a remote hearing, which to be honest was expected, although I’m still a little disappointed but hey ho, it is what it is..

Has anyone else had a remote first dispute over the past few months, and could possibly give me an insight on what to expect?

Not on the first dispute in general, I’ve attended court previously for my eldest child so I’m fairly familiar with the process, but more what to expect with the remote aspect of things..

I’m imagining it might make things that more difficult to convey, and I can see it perhaps stalling things to a degree, I don’t want to be pessimistic, but I just can’t imagine how it’ll be anything like as constructive as a face to face hearing?

Any feedback on this would be great - thanks all.

hi,

my 2nd hearing, DRA was remote. it became the final hearing. In some ways I thought its better than being there in person. takes the stress away. court rings all parties and you join the conference. had plenty of chances to speak. if anything is unclear, just ask them to repeat or clarify anything. they record the call.
