Other Civil Law Attorneys
Collaborative Attorneys. In Collaborative Law, each party has an attorney who makes a pledge to work towards resolution without resorting to adversarial means. The sole focus and goal of Collaborative Law attorneys is to help the parties reach a durable agreement.
Collaborative attorneys are advocates for their clients with the specific directive to assist clients in reaching an agreement that meets their client’s most important needs as best as circumstances permit. The style of advocacy for a Collaborative Law attorney is therefore very different from the style of advocacy of conventional attorneys.
As dispute resolution specialists, Collaborative lawyers jointly guide, manage, and facilitate the Collaborative Law process. Attorneys act as the legal counselors for their clients. Collaborative lawyers provide legal education, and ensure that all legal considerations are properly addressed.
All Collaborative attorneys who are members of King County Collaborative Law must meet minimum training requirements.
