Camden County Custody Agreement Attorney
With the 2009 New Jersey Supreme Court decision of Fawzy v. Fawzy, the justices permitted trained mediators to make recommendations and certain decisions with regard to child custody. Previously, no one but the superior court judges could make such determinations in disputed cases.
Specifically, the court upheld that "The constitutionally protected right of parental autonomy includes the right of parents to choose the forum in which to resolve their disputes over child custody and parenting time, including arbitration. An agreement to arbitrate must be in writing or recorded and must establish that the parties are aware of and have knowingly and voluntarily waived their rights to a judicial determination."
