COVID-19 is having a profound impact on the way that you conduct your practice, whether you represent injured workers or their employers, or if you deliver your legal services at either the Board or Appeals Tribunal. This interactive panel addresses some of the challenges and changes you are facing, and proposes how legal practitioners might adapt their practices to the new reality, allowing us to work together to create effective alternate processes. They discuss ways that you can assist the tribunals in their work, and how to use new technologies to improve the delivery of workers’ compensation legal services to your clients.
