Spanish term or phrase: this address
Sala de Bayamon del Tribunal Administrativo en el Departamento de la Familia, Oficina Regional Bayamon (Puerto Rico)

This is a puzzle! literally! I've been moving words around, and it just doesn't sound right; I think it's the word Sala, at the beginning that's confusing me, but anyway, I need your help.
These are instructions for the parties in a court hearing in case they want to go in person to request a reconsideration.
My attempt:
Court of Bayamon Office of the Administrative Court at the Department of the Family, Regional Office, Bayamón.
Blanca Collazo
Puerto Rico
Local time: 19:17
Bayamon Division of the Administrative Court of the Department of the Family, Bayamon Regional Offic
Explanation:
Could not finish writing "Office" due to lack of space.

I am from Puerto Rico and live there. The "Departamento de la Famila" is a department of the Executive Branch not the Judicial Branch, therefore it can only carry out administrative proceedings which are very similar to court proceedings.

This department is the equivalent of the Department of Family Services or Social Services in other states.

When it says "Sala de Bayamon" it refers to the Department's geographical division where the proceedings will be carried out not the courtroom per se.
