Family law demands a constant balancing between business goals and professional responsibilities. As a former Chairperson of the District XIII Ethics Committee, business goals never take precedence over professional ideals in Mr. Trombadore's divorce practice. John Trombadore has earned a reputation among his peers and clients as one of New Jersey's premier matrimonial attorneys and a successful mediator. Mr. Trombadore has played a significant role in the advancement and improvement of divorce and custody law in New Jersey over the past four decades. John Trombadore currently devotes a substantial portion of his time to divorce arbitration and mediation. Divorce mediation is a voluntary and non-binding alternative to litigation that offers the parties an opportunity to settle their financial disputes and child custody issues outside of the court system. A divorce mediator must be skilled at evaluating how a judge would decide certain issues and capable of bringing the parties to an equitable settlement. Such a mediator can create tremendous value for the parties by avoiding substantial attorney fees and preventing stressful litigation and trial. Mediation also eliminates the uncertainty of how a judge ultimately would resolve the dispute. Mr. Trombadore has successfully mediated to resolution numerous complex divorce and custody matters. He has received recognition amongst his peers as one of the premier divorce mediators in New Jersey and is listed as a "Best Family Law Mediator" and "Best Family Law Arbitrator" by The Best Lawyers in America, New Jersey Monthly Magazine and New York Magazine for years 2007-2012 [only seven attorneys listed].
