Arbitration

Arbitration can be binding or not binding, unlike mediation, and results in a decision made by an arbitrator. The parties determine, at the onset, whether the arbitrator's decision will be binding and establish the specific ground rules to be followed in the arbitration. Through the arbitration process, the arbitrator hears testimony and accepts evidence. At the end of the arbitration hearing, the arbiter will make a final decision about all of the issues presented in the case.

Benefits of arbitration include the confidentiality of the process, and the fact that you are able to schedule hearing dates that work for you, rather than having to comply with the court's schedule over which you have no control. Cases tried before judges take months, if not years to resolve, while attorneys and clients are required to attend numerous court appearances, often without making progress in the cases. In arbitration, the parties, counsel and arbitrator control the schedule and insure that time spent in the process is productive. Our family law arbitration attorneys can serve as arbitrators in your cases, or they can represent you in arbitration to ensure that your best interests are articulated in the arbitration process.
