One of the Basic and Toughest Decisions
A client may never face a tougher legal decision than evaluating the pros and cons of litigation, mediation and Collaborative Law.
What are the differences among these basic legal paths to resolving a dispute?
The short answer:
Litigation is the classic adversarial approach. Disputing parties, through their attorneys, argue their positions in a public hearing or trial before a judge or judge and jury. Judge and perhaps jury make the final decisions.
In mediation, a "neutral" authority relies on strict guidelines while working with the parties as they try to settle their issues in private.
In Collaborative Law, the prime directive and rules require all parties, their attorneys and their expert advisers to work cooperatively in private to settle the parties’ differences. No one person or side controls the process.
