Arbitration is an alternative to going through the courts, which can be a drawn-out process. Through this process, the parties appoint a suitably qualified family law arbitrator, who has the judicial powers to make a formal judgement on a dispute and make a binding decision.

The first step involves both parties signing an agreement to arbitrate and to abide by the rules of the scheme. The parties can either:

• Nominate a particular arbitrator
• Ask for an arbitrator to be appointed from a specialist panel by the Institute of Family Law Arbitrators

The Napthens team will provide specific advice to support the process and enable a client to reach an acceptable conclusion to the matters.
