I have been litigating cases since 1982. Costs have risen dramatically and cases are more complex; sometimes taking a toll on budgets and mental health. An alternative to litigation for parties in constant turmoil is the collaborative process. The Collaborative Team helps parties reach a beneficial resolution by offering their skills, guidance, knowledge, and support.
