From Arbitration to the Hague: Confidently Navigating Essential Jurisdictions in Family Law

Partner Marie Lihotz will serve as a panelist for this program hosted by the New Jersey State Bar Association addressing jurisdictional complexities in family law practice.

This program is designed to provide attorneys with practical insight into the most common jurisdictional crossovers impacting family law matters. The panel will feature legal professionals, including a retired Appellate Division judge, a retired bankruptcy judge, family law practitioners, and an immigration law attorney.

The discussion will focus on how overlapping legal frameworks affect family law cases and will offer actionable guidance on identifying and addressing these issues. Topics will include:

  • Recognizing when arbitration, appellate, bankruptcy, immigration, and Hague Convention issues arise
  • Understanding the interplay between UIFSA and other jurisdictional frameworks
  • Navigating multi-jurisdictional matters with confidence and strategic clarity

The program is intended for practitioners at all experience levels seeking to strengthen their understanding of jurisdictional issues and enhance their ability to manage complex, multi-forum matters.
