What Is “Collaborative Law?”

Collaborative Practice, including Collaborative Law is a revolutionary way for you to resolve disputes respectfully, while working with trained professionals. There are many ways to resolve a dispute. To save you time, and money, we recommend Collaboration. The word “Collaborate’ is defined as ‘working together, joining forces, teaming up, pooling resources, acting as a team, and cooperating with each other.’ This has proven to be the best method for resolving conflict and keeping emotional issues to a minimum. We apply a Collaborative Approach to family law issues where fragile and vulnerable situations create a new beginning to a new life.

The Law Office of John H. Spurgeon and associates is dedicated to addressing disputes in a respectful, collaborative manner that resolves conflict, avoid court and help families restructure their relationships to benefit all members of the family during and after the divorce. In cases where the Collaborative or Cooperative Approach is not effective, or when court is necessary, we have seasoned, well trained litigators who will represent you and your interests accordingly.
