Arizona Family Law And Paralegal Certification Practice Exam

Are parties required to meet in person if there is a history of domestic violence?

Yes No Only if ordered by the judge Only for mediation

Correct Answer:

Explanation:

Safety concerns in domestic violence cases mean that parties aren’t automatically required to meet face-to-face. When there’s a history of DV, courts and mediation programs prioritize the party’s safety and often allow alternatives to in-person meetings. This can include participation by phone or video, or conducting mediation in caucus sessions where each party talks separately with the mediator. A judge can order other arrangements if needed, but the default is not to require an in-person meeting because safety considerations take precedence.
