Collaborative Family Law is a relatively new way of negotiating agreements between separating couples. Separating can be an extremely stressful, time consuming and expensive process. However, Collaborative Family Law offers a non adversarial solution orientated alternative. More and more clients are working together to resolve matters regarding children and financial issues arising out of their separation using this process. The cornerstone of Collaborative Family Law is an agreement at the outset between parties not to litigate. All negotiations take place within four way meetings between parties and Solicitors. Patience & Buchan have been actively involved with this new process since it was introduced in Scotland. For more information visit www.scottish-collaborativelawyers.com.
