"The Oklahoma Legislature recently amended the family law code to require courts to conduct a substantive (not proffer) temporary order hearing on child custody, visitation, child support and other ancillary matters, including property. Where domestic violence is alleged, the same substantive hearing must be held within 10 days. The amendment became effective Nov. 1, 2024. This may cause significant docket congestion in the larger counties. Practitioners may anticipate 'cattle call' dockets with multiple cases being disposed of with rapid-fire dispensation of the 'substantive' hearings to meet this statutory deadline. Arbitration of these temporary order hearings and family law matters in general – if embraced by the legal community – could alleviate much of the anticipated log jam. It would give parties the time and expert attention needed to resolve their initial temporary order, if not their entire case, thereby avoiding the overcrowded docket."

Cost Effective, Efficient, Confidential Dispute Resolution
关于我们
THE OKLAHOMA ARBITRATION CENTER provides Oklahomans, legal professionals, and companies with a cost-effective, efficient, confidential, and local alternative for resolving disputes either through arbitration or mediation. By delivering personalized and streamlined dispute resolution services, we aim to foster trust, promote fairness, and contribute to peacefully resolving conflicts. Advantages of Arbitration with the OAC ? Cost efficiency -- The average cost of a civil dispute is over $135,000, according to a 2023 survey conducted by the US Chamber Institute for Legal Reform. At the OAC we offer fewer procedural hurdles, streamlined processes and fast track rules, thereby reducing your costs. ? Speed -- It is not uncommon for civil and family law cases to be pending for two to five years and sometimes longer. At the OAC, we aspire to resolve cases within six months or sooner. ? Privacy -- Arbitration is confidential. Proceedings are private as compared to court cases which are a matter of public record. This confidentiality is essential for parties wishing to keep sensitive information and the record of the dispute out of the public eye. ? Complexity -- Judges are public officials who may have limited experience with your needs. They also have full court dockets and limited time to devote to a case.. The OAC can resolve complex cases. We offer experienced practitioners with expertise in the your particular case law, allowing for the time and attention your dispute deserves. ? Autonomy – In arbitration, the parties choose the decision maker, the law applied to the dispute, the rules, the location of the proceedings and the time frame of the hearing. Your input and addressing your needs are part of the process. ? Finality – Arbitral awards are final and binding upon the parties. There are limited grounds to challenge arbitral decisions in both the district and appellate courts. An arbitral award may be confirmed into an enforceable judgment.
