Making the Case for Virtual Hearings
Honored to have my letter published in The Detroit News, where I shared why virtual court hearings are all about efficiency. These hearings save clients time and money—no need to take a day off, drive to court, or wait for hours just to be heard.
Virtual rulings hold the same weight as in-person ones. Most legal work happens behind the scenes anyway—through discovery, depositions, and briefs. Judges are like referees, stepping in only when needed.
Not every hearing needs to be in person, and in-person sessions should be the exception, not the rule. It’s time we embrace what works.
