Everyone has been spending a lot more time online these days, with many companies going permanently remote or adopting a hybrid model. As tricky as it can be to learn new technologies, you can't deny that online services have made life far more convenient. One of the fastest growing digital solutions is Online Dispute Resolution (ODR), a virtual method of mediation. Thanks to ODR, mediation is more accessible and affordable than ever, and settlements are reached in a fraction of the time.   Listen in to the ImageSoft team's in-depth conversation with acclaimed online mediator, Susan Guthrie, Esq. Guthrie has worked in family law for many years, and has recently found a passion for helping other mediators move to the online platform. She is also well-known for her innovative and cutting edge Learn to Mediate podcast.

Loretta Frederick, Senior Legal Policy Adviser to the Battered Women's Justice Project, joins Tom to discuss the incidence of intimate partner violence (IPV) during the stay-at-home periods of the pandemic. She points out that those who were previously living with coercive controlling domestic violence are even more entrapped in these dangerous situations. This is especially alarming in Minnesota with the significant increase in purchases of firearms by first-time gun owners. She highlights the new tactics used by abusers, for example, where an abuser may withhold a child from an essential worker-parent on the pretext that the essential worker may endanger the child through exposure to COVID-19. She addresses the challenges survivors face in fleeing to a safe house that may expose the survivors own family and the host family to COVID-19. She discusses the challenges in rural areas that had relied upon hotels to temporarily shelter survivors when those hotels are now closed. All of this compounded when shelters are full and staff and other supports are not available. Further, survivors do not have access to libraries or coffee shops where they may have accessed help through the internet. The supports they need to get to safety are largely unavailable. There is the additional concern that children are exposed to more abuse than they were. School counselors, nurses, neighbors, clergy, doctors are all no longer in regular contact with survivors and their children. Options for survivors like independence through housing, employment, support services, and the courts have been less accessible or even not available during the heart of the quarantine. She discusses the challenges of Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) and court trials via videoconferencing. For example, what if the abuser and survivor are in the same location during videoconferences? She posits the possibility of entering into temporary, pandemic-related settlements lasting perhaps six months so that a more thoughtful solution can be devised once the pandemic has abated. This is one way to try to limit the long-term negative implications of the pandemic. The video she references is available at bwjp.org.

A talk show on KZSU-FM, Stanford, 90.1 FM, hosted by Center for Internet & Society Resident Fellow David S. Levine. The show includes guests and focuses on the intersection of technology and society. How is our world impacted by the great technological changes taking place? Each week, a different sphere is explored. This week, David interviews eBay's Director of Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) and CIS Fellow Colin Rule about dispute resolution at eBay and the broader world of ODR.

As people around the world increasingly interact with each other in cyberspace it is inevitable that disputes will arise. If the internet is to become a trusted environment for both commerce and content, individuals and organizations must have access to redress systems to resolve their online disputes. In the face-to-face world we rely on the courts to address disagreements, but courts are not well designed to handle online disputes because judicial systems are usually too tied to geography and jurisdiction. Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) is a better solution for many online conflicts because it is effective, efficient, and trans-boundary by nature. As an organization pioneering the creation of online marketplaces eBay has long acknowledged the need for effective online redress, and that is why eBay and PayPal have invested heavily in ODR processes and partnerships. The work done by eBay in this area offers a blueprint for how other institutions, especially public institutions, can provide redress systems as they steadily move their operations online.
