Bill overview
This bill aims to bring Massachusetts in line with a national standard for family law arbitration. It proposes to adopt the Uniform Family Law Arbitration Act, which would establish a framework for resolving family law disputes through arbitration rather than traditional court proceedings. This could potentially offer a faster and more private alternative for parties involved in divorce, custody, or support cases. The bill is intended to modernize Massachusetts’ family law system.
