Schedule Online
On-Line Scheduling Instructions:
My On-Line scheduling platform allows counsel to effortlessly book a service easily and conveniently:
Step 1: Review my current availability as reflected in the above Calendar:
The above calendar reflects my current availability. Simply coordinate with all counsel to select a date and time which is convenient to all counsel as well as his/her respective clients.
Note: I make every effort to keep my calendar current and in real-time; however, on occasion, it is possible that other parties book a time that has not yet made it to the calendar. Similarly, a conflict in scheduling that also has not made it to the calendar may require the selection of a different date or time. In that circumstance, I will immediately advise accordingly so that we can coordinate an alternate date and time.
Step 2: Choose Someone to Complete the Booking Form:
Because of the limitations of the scheduling platform, only one (1) person can schedule the proceedings. That person can be anyone (counsel/assistant/secretary/paralegal). The person booking the proceedings will receive an email confirmation at the conclusion of the booking process. I will then forward the booking information to all counsel as well as any assistants, secretaries and/or paralegals identified during the booking process.
Step 3: Proceed to book through the booking process:
This is a step-by-step portal which will request various information to schedule the proceedings.
Step 4: Select "Category:"
Here, you will be prompted to select whether the proceedings will be convened either virtually through "Zoom," or "In-Person."
There is also an option for "not applicable" in the event the requested service does not require a hearing (such as in an "Interpleader/Policy Limits Resolution" where everyone is simply submitting materials for review without the necessity of a hearing/mediation.
Step 5: Select "Service:"
Here, simply select:
"Binding Arbitration" - "Non-Binding Mediation" - "Settlement Day" - "Interpleader/Policy Limits Resolution"
Step 6: Select Date & Time for the Proceedings to begin:
I "typically" convene proceeding beginning at 10:00 am or 2:00 pm. However, special circumstances or personal preference may dictate a different time to begin the proceedings. Simply select the time all parties agree to begin the proceedings.
Step 7: Proceed to the "Details" section:
Here, the person booking the proceedings should provide his/her name, phone number, and email address. In addition, please enter the Caption of the case, and any and all counsel, assistants, secretaries and/or paralegals who should be included in all subsequent correspondence such as "Acknowledgement Letters" and/or "Confirmations."
Here, there is also a field to identify the anticipated duration for the proceedings (1-2 hours, 2-4 hours, or "full day").
An "Additional Scheduling Details" window is also available, if necessary, to provide any other relevant scheduling information.
Final Step: Complete the Booking:
The person booking the service with receive confirmation of the booking, as will I. Thereafter, I will forward the booking information to all counsel and others identified in the "Details" section.
