Hearing Officer Services
Either by contract or governing law, an agency or entity may appoint an independent and impartial hearing officer to consider the issues relating to a particular dispute and to provide recommendations or render decisions pursuant to the state and local laws. A hearing officer may be required to rule on all motions, administer oaths, subpoena witnesses or documents, examine witnesses, and rule upon the admissibility of evidence.
