Collaborative Practice, including Collaborative Law and interdisciplinary Collaborative Practice, is a way for you to resolve disputes respectfully -- without going to court -- while working with trained professionals who help you focus on what matters to you.
The heart of Collaborative Practice is to offer you and your spouse or partner the support, protection, and guidance of your own lawyers without going to court. Additionally, Collaborative
Practice allows you the benefit of child and financial specialists, divorce coaches and other professionals all working together on your team. All professionals involved in your case commit to an interest-based negotiation process.
In Collaborative Practice, you commit by contract to:
- Negotiate a mutually acceptable settlement without having courts decide issues.
- Maintain open communication and information sharing.
- Create solutions that meet the needs of your family.
