Attorney Maureen McBrien spoke last week at a hearing before the Joint Committee on the Judiciary of the Massachusetts State Legislature in favor of the Act to adopt the uniform family law arbitration act.  The bill (H. No. 1940) is sponsored by Representative Ramos of North Andover and Representative Cataldo of Concord.  Attorney McBrien hopes that Massachusetts becomes the ninth state to adopt the act to afford family law participants an alternative path to resolution of their family law matters.
