The Collaborative Law Process

Collaborative Law is a process that seeks to assist the parties in resolving their cases through interest-based negotiation rather than position-based negotiation without the trauma or expense of “going to court.” The process involves attorneys, mental health professionals and financial professionals working with the clients in face-to-face meetings. These meetings explore the parties’ interests, goals and options with a civilized approach designed to reach a “win-win” resolution for the parties.
The Collaborative Law process is an excellent tool for resolving divorce and family law cases, as well as civil cases including guardianship and probate. New Paradigm Collaborative Law Training events are designed for those new to the collaborative process as well as experienced collaborative professionals.
