What is Collaborative Law?

LEGAL TALK NETWORK
About this episode

The rising costs of litigation and increased pressure to control legal budgets has made alternative dispute resolution a desirable way to resolve legal disputes. Mediation and arbitration are two well-known ADR methods, but they're not necessarily the most cost effective. Can parties possibly resolve their disputes without tearing each other down, and work to preserve good working relationships? The method of collaborative law attempts to help parties resolve disputes in exactly that fashion. To discuss this concept, Dave welcomes guest Glenn Meier to the show. 


Glenn is a business lawyer in Greenberg Traurig's Las Vegas office. Glenn leverages decades of experience negotiating and litigating commercial disputes to help clients build sustainable collaborative relationships with their stakeholders. He also possesses deep experience in the emerging fields of relational contracting and collaborative law.
