Family law — a different approach
Collaborative Practice helps families to work together to resolve parenting and financial issues without the need to go to court.
Wills & Estates
Collaborative Practice means working with families to resolve estate or succession planning issues without ending up in court.
What is Collaborative Practice?
Collaborative Practice is a way of settling disputes outside of courts. Participants are given legal, financial and emotional support by accredited professionals, enabling them to find fitting solutions while maintaining their important relationships.
Family Law
Separating from a spouse is always a difficult process, which can be made much harder by a lengthy litigation process. Collaborative practice is ideally suited to helping families undergoing separation by removing many of the factors that make divorce such a trying time.
Wills and Estates
Estate disputes that can arise after the loss of a family member are emotionally and financially difficult. The primary aim of the Collaborative Practice model in Wills and Estates is to help families resolve estate or succession planning issues without ending up in Court.
