Collaborative law is an alternative, and increasingly popular, way for couples to work through their separation, divorce or dissolution. It involves a series of joint meetings with you, your partner and your respective collaborative lawyers in which you come up with family focused solutions together. Here at Thrings, we recognise that the threat of court action can hinder rather than progress constructive negotiation between family members, especially when discussions centre around such personal issues as private financial arrangements or the children. Read our guide to find out whether the collaborative law approach is for you.
