Collaborative law is designed
to minimise the distress of relationship breakdown as far
as possible by opting out of the court process to resolve
issues. We have a number of trained individuals.
It means that the couple set the agenda rather than the
courts and discuss what they want in a series of face-to-face
meetings with their respective lawyers.
who are collaborative practitioners?
These are lawyers and other
professionals trained in collaborative practice who help their
clients reach a fair agreement.
the collaborative process
- The couple agree with their lawyers to resolve issues
without going to court.
- Settlement is reached in meetings between the couple
and their respective lawyers.
- All relevant information is disclosed in the process.
- You remain in control of the process.
If no settlement can be reached, new lawyers have to be
instructed for court proceedings.
