Arbitration is a process in which parties have their divorce or family law matter heard and decided by an experienced judge or attorney in a private setting; the neutral arbitrator makes an equitable decision in the matter after hearing evidence from both sides. Arbitration is a growing choice for smart couples who wish to achieve a reasoned outcome in their matter without the need to go to court.
Judge Maenza joins an incredibly strong team of divorce and family law experts and family law specialists who devote their practice to safeguarding their client’s rights, children and futures, assisting them in starting a positive new chapter in their lives.
