This is the new Wunderkind of the non-adversarial family law world. Collaborative law is similar to mediation, in that the goal is to reach the best resolution to all issues and keep control of the outcome. However, there are two attorneys instead of one, giving each party the chance to work in depth with one attorney. These attorneys promise in writing not to go to court. Other professionals are usually on the team, financial professionals and psychological coaches. The best teams treat the couple as though they were in mediation; this achieves the best and deepest result. Collaborative law is more costly than mediation, but still only about twenty-five percent of the adversarial cost.
