Product description
In the preface of the first edition, Stu Webb, the grandfather of collaborative law, wrote that practicing CL "will change your practice and your life." Webb knew what he was talking about. CL burst into view when Pauline H. Tesler "exported" the concept first developed by Webb in his practice. Over the years CL has consistently attracted lawyers who want to align their life values with their professional practice and who abhorred the adversarial norms of divorce litigation.
CL has taught family lawyers an invaluable lesson on how to respond effectively to change the tone of contenuous divorce litigation to a civil conversation that results in an equitable agreement for both divorcing partners. In this book, the author cuts to the chase showing lawyers how to omit the ritual of unrealistic opening offers, ongoing meetings and the back and forth negotiation between attorneys as well as clients.
Collaborative Law, Third Edition will clearly explain all aspects of the process including:
•Parties and counsel signing a participation agreement
•Terms of litigation
•The lawyers' ability to withdraw and how new counsel will be hired
•And more!
