What is Collaborative Law or Collaborative
Divorce?
  • Collaborative Law or Collaborative Divorce is a
    process by which parties and their respective
    lawyers sign an agreement, a Participation
    Agreement, to negotiate a peaceful and equitable
    resolution of the issues relating to the
    termination of their relationship without going
    to court. The parties and lawyers agree to work
    together in a transparent manner to reach a
    settlement that best meets the respective partys
    needs and interests.
