COVID-19 UPDATE: In order to prevent unnecessary, potentially dangerous, physical interactions, parties should consider entirely virtual arbitrations.
Andrzej offers state-of-the-art video-conferencing facilities so that the parties can arbitrate from separate locations, and each side can take advantage of separate confidential video-conferencing. No extra cost is charged for this service.

Andrzej qualified as a family arbitrator in 2012. He conducted one of the earliest IFLA arbitrations shortly after the scheme was set up in 2012 and has now dealt with over 30 arbitrations, as well as numerous early-neutral evaluations (Private Financial Dispute Resolution appointments) and mediations, including both divorce and TOLATA cases, making him one of the most experienced and most frequently instructed family law arbitrators.  He is also a qualified mediator in both the family and civil mediation models.
