What is Even-Handed?

The ability to evaluate situations without letting personal bias, preference, or self-interest distort your judgment. Impartial people create environments where everyone feels their case will be heard.

When you might feel even-handed

Even-Handed is a specific form of fairness, which itself is a type of justice. You might experience this feeling in situations where justice is present, particularly when the circumstances align with the nuances that define even-handed.
