Family law arbitration promises efficiency, privacy and flexibility — but does the Revised Uniform Arbitration Act (RUAA) truly safeguard the unique needs of divorcing spouses, parents and children? The TBA Family Law and Dispute Resolution sections will host a joint program on Dec. 18 at 11 a.m. CST that examines whether the RUAA provides adequate protections for family law litigants or whether specialized legislation is required. Participants will explore statutory gaps, including confidentiality, child‑focused standards, judicial review and enforceability of awards. Comparative insights from jurisdictions with domestic relations arbitration statutes will highlight best practices and potential reforms. Reserve your spot today!
