Description

Today, conventional legal practices coexist with technology-driven legal services. Online Dispute Resolution explores how digitalisation is transforming court-administered justice and how disputes are increasingly resolved remotely via ODR. Written by Dr Max Barrett, a judge of the High Court of Ireland, the book argues that public justice systems are transitioning to offer fair, online access to a fundamental human right: justice.

Readers will learn about:

• The ongoing transformation of legal services and the changing nature of court-administered justice.
• The worldwide shift toward online dispute resolution (ODR) and remote processes.
• How traditional courts are evolving as justice moves onto digital platforms.
• Access-to-justice implications of e-justice and its potential to broaden inclusion.
• The future trajectory of public justice systems as digital solutions scale.
