Collaborative Law

Collaborative law enables couples to find solutions that benefit both parties without having to go through court proceedings. It’s a more holistic strategy for resolving disputes, that allows couples to reach flexible and creative solutions to their problems. In collaborative law, along with the concerned individuals, their respective solicitors also work together to find common ground that would best suit each other’s interests.

As a more holistic and flexible approach, collaborative law is different from other conflict resolution methods. Instead of relying on formal legal proceedings that could go on for a while and drain each other’s budgets, it allows couples to concentrate on the most important issues rather than what gets prioritised by a court.

At Austin Kemp, we believe that just because there’s a dispute doesn’t mean there should be needless confrontations. Our objective is to make sure that couples find amicable solutions that don’t disproportionately punish either of the parties. With considerable experience in family law and divorce, the expert solicitors at Austin Kemp will strive to give holistic and meaningful closures that allow the concerned individuals to move forward.

Collaborative law allows couples to maintain open channels of communication that will help them attain long-lasting solutions. If there are any children involved, the divorce attorneys at Austin Kemp will ensure that the procedure doesn’t negatively affect them. All discussions will be conducted face-to-face with minimal correspondence to ensure that there are no needless delays.

Whether it’s a divorce, separation, or family disagreement, the traditional court process can be costly, lengthy, and overall unpleasant. That’s the primary reason families and couples approach the divorce solicitors at Austin Kemp for a resolution through collaborative law.

Collaborative law allows the concerned parties to have more control over the process. Since it’s a four-way negotiation without the involvement of the court and its timetables, it will also help the individuals quickly reach a solution. At Austin Kemp, we make sure that the process is designed around the individuals’ priorities and schedules. Our effort is to make it as effective and comfortable as possible.

At Austin Kemp, we know that in several cases, more than the divorce itself, it’s the process that hurts and harms families. Collaborative law allows couples to reduce conflict and the associated heartaches. This makes it easy for couples to move on and start their new lives.

Finally, the collaborative law process has greater chances of long-term success. That’s because couples are more likely to honour the commitments since they would have reached those on their own. When the agreement terms are imposed by a court, it can lead to discontent among one or both parties.
