Arbitration - a better way to achieve adjudication - a discussion with Tristan Harvey
Description
In a high conflict dispute it is highly likely that one of the couple will drive the proceeding to Court - insisting that a decision is required by a Judge - thereby increasing delay and cost. Since 2012 in financial remedy proceedings and 2016 in Children Act proceedings those decisions can be made by an Arbitrator.
Narcissists thrive on the 'courtroom' drama - keen to take 'centre stage' and force the other person to endure unnecessary cost an distress. They may be persuaded to consider arbitration due to the 'bespoke' nature of the process and it's consequential 'specialness'.
Tristan Harvey (currently co-chair of the Resolution NCDR committee with Elaine Richardson - a future guest on this podcast) is an experienced barrister and mediator specialising in Family Law dispute resolution. Tristan is also an arbitrator in financial and children cases and conducts private FDRs and early neutral evaluations.
In 2020 Tristan was appointed a Deputy District Judge on the South Eastern Circuit.
In this podcast Tristan looks in detail at the process of arbitration and how it can be of material benefit in most cases which require an adjudication.
