The agreement, and other court documents , at the parties’ option may be drafted by the mediator for subsequent filing in court, or in personnel or organizational records.
Collaborative Law
Collaborative law is a new approach to conflict resolution which aim is to allow a “win-win” resolution. It provides an effective and fair alternative to the traditional adversarial process. In collaborative law each party is represented by counsel; however the parties and their counsel agree not to proceed to court during the collaborative law process. Parties and counsel meet together to design a fair and reasonable settlement based on open, complete, and honest disclosures. If needed, you have the opportunity to jointly work with other trained professionals, such as child specialist or tax accountants. The collaborative law process allows a resolution that empowers you to move forward with your life with a minimum of emotional and financial strain as - as well for emotional healing for all involved.
