Collaborative Law

Since the first edition of Pauline Tesler's groundbreaking book, Collaborative Law, there has been an explosion of interest in this dispute resolution method. Now substantially revised and considerably expanded, Collaborative Law serves both as a comprehensive introduction to collaborative legal practice for those new to the area as well as a current reference for more experienced practitioners. Reflecting the developing interest in collaborative representation, this new edition covers the theoretical and practical advances made in the field and features significant additional information on topics such as ethics, marketing, and public education, as well as new forms for use in a collaborative law practice.

Explaining the goals and processes of collaborative law, this guide serves as a broad introduction for practitioners new to the area as well as a current reference for more experienced practitioners. Tesler clearly discusses the core concepts, techniques, and approaches that really work. Topics include:

• An overview of collaborative law
• The three stages of a collaborative case
• Concepts and tools for effective collaborative family law practice
• Key moments in a collaborative representation
• Statutes, rules, standards, and protocols
• Sample documents and forms
• Marketing your collaborative practice
