Arnold D.
Cribari , Esq.
Arnold Cribari has been a practicing lawyer for 28 years. With more than 20 years of practice concentrating on matrimonial and family law, he has a track record for negotiating solutions to divorce and custody issues, avoiding litigation whenever possible. He has experienced the abysmal failure of the adversarial system to deal appropriately with the dissolution of marriages, particularly when children are involved. With the advent of Collaborative Law, Arnold has found a viable alternative to both the adversarial system, and to mediation, which has a different set of drawbacks, particularly in cases where there is an imbalance of power between the parties.
Arnold earned his BA degree at Columbia College of Columbia University in New York, and his JD degree from Albany Law School of Union University. He was admitted to the New York State Bar in 1977 and has focused his practice in family law since 1985.
He received mediation training in November 2001, Collaborative Law training in February 2004, and advanced Collaborative Law training in September 2005. He is an active member of the New York Collaborative Law Group and the International Academy of Collaborative Professionals. He has spoken on numerous occasions before local bar associations as well as community and business groups on the subject of Collaborative Law. He also lectures on other family law matters.
His article, "Restraining the Custodial Parent from Relocating the Child to a Distant Domicile . . ., " published by the Domestic Law Review of the Westchester County Bar Association, reflects his interest in issues affecting the well-being of children caught up in a post-divorce dispute.
Married for 26 years with two teen-age children, Arnold and his wife Shawn also raised their now 19-year-old niece who was orphaned at age 11. Arnold understands from personal experience how important consistent, stable relationships are for a child's ability to thrive.
He is a member of the New York State Bar Association (Family Law Section), Westchester County Bar Association (Family Law Section), and the Yorktown Bar Association of which he is a past president.
