Will the clash of the titans in *Young v Young* result in a move to family arbitration? Catherine Thomas, Senior Director at Vardags and international divorce lawyer, analyses the increase in divorcing couples considerng the option of family arbitration.

Catherine anticipates how more couples opting for family arbitration will alleviate the pressure on the fraught family public system. Arbitration offers a discreet, specialist approach to international family law cases, such as the ones handled by Vardags that often involve complex assets in the millions on a global scale.
