"Collaborative Law: A Synopsis," Jack Mahler. King County Collaborative Law is an organization of lawyers, as well as mental health, financial, vocational and other related professionals, committed to resolving disputes outside of court in a respectful and cooperative manner. The parties to the dispute each have their own attorneys but fashion their own agreement, guided and advised (not directed) by their team of attorneys and the other professionals involved in the process. A distinguishing feature of Collaborative Law is that if the parties choose to go to court, their lawyers are disqualified from representing them, which ensures the entire team focuses on dispute resolution. To this end, all team members are trained in the Collaborative Law process as well as client-centered, interest-based facilitative communication, and discussions focus on the interests of the parties.
