Is it Right
for Me?
___The collaborative law
process is not for everyone. There has to be a willingness of both parties
to work on a cooperative basis and establish a certain level of trust. Some
family law cases may be too contentious for this process to work. If you feel
it
may be right for you, you should discuss it with a lawyer who is knowledgeable
about the collaborative law process.
___The
collaborative law process does not dispense with representation by an attorney.
Your attorney is still your advocate, but the framework the parties operate
within is different from the traditional adversarial model.
___We recommend the team approach, which involves the use of a mental health professional as a coach-facilitator and a neutral financial professional.
