Arbitration Approach
I normally follow courtroom procedure in a somewhat more relaxed fashion (ie Rules of Procedure and Evidence are observed where required). However, if all parties agree to proceed in a less formal manner I will accommodate them to the extent allowed by Rules of Court. I will present a written, reasoned decision after the hearing explaining my findings and conclusions.
Brief Thumbnail
I request that all sides forward a general statement of their case by fax, mail or e-mail before the hearing. This is not a requirement but is helpful to me and the side presenting the statement.
