Michael Heron’s Passion Project A love of what the digital world could offer those seeking justice and a successful digital entrepreneur living next door have inspired former Solicitor General Michael Heron QC to set up an online dispute resolution service that can provide great access to experts in the dispute resolution area.

Mr Heron, who resigned as Solicitor General last year, was excited by the ability to combine legal collaboration with digital delivery when he worked as the Crown’s senior legal officer.

“Primarily, I wanted to do something to address the problem of access to justice that is much talked about. In particular, a collaborative digital offering has the potential to offer fast, effective dispute resolution in a more cost effective way, he told LawFuel.

He said his time at Crown Law demonstrated the potential to harness the power of collaboration, such as with the Government Legal Network which provides a collaboration of government lawyers, together with a digital business that fascinated him.

The result is Complete Online Dispute Resolution (CODR), which provides parties in dispute with the ability to gain online access to a growing list of arbitrators and mediators to facilitate a cost effective and speedy resolution.
