Collaborative Family Law

Collaborative law is a dispute resolution process, facilitated by trained lawyers who assist participants in resolving conflict using cooperative strategies rather than adversarial techniques.


Through a series of group meetings, lawyers and participants focus on identifying underlying interests. Participants of Collaborative Family Law agree to negotiate an agreement without going to court.

Mediation

Mediation is a voluntary dispute resolution process where the parties are assisted by a trained mediator, who acts as a neutral third party.


The mediator facilitates the conversation between the parties and helps to guide them through the negotiation of an agreement.


Using interest-based negotiation to help the parties identify their needs, and better understand the other person’s needs, the mediator acts as a catalyst to help reach a workable agreement for both people.

Wills and Estates

It is a good idea to have a will, even though Nova Scotia law does not say that you must make one.


The making a will can provide you peace of mind, and make it easier for family or friends to handle your affairs when you die.


As a will is a legal document, it can coordinate the distribution of your assets after death and can appoint guardians for minor children. A will is important to have, as it allows you to communicate your wishes clearly and precisely.
