CLP (Collaborative Law & Practice)

Technically complex issues cannot always be dealt with by the conflict parties alone. A mediator who has to be abstinent in terms of content so that she is perceived as neutral by all conflict parties can usually no longer absorb this. External lawyers cannot understand the developments that the parties and their conflict experienced during mediation. Their legal advice then sometimes comes like “blows” from the background and is not always helpful for resolving the dispute. And the sword of Damocles of the contentious process constantly dangles over you. In CLP, all parties agree at the beginning that the proceedings will take place exclusively outside of court. Here, the lawyers accompany you throughout the entire conflict resolution process. They advise and support you in finding a good solution for the whole family system. If necessary, other professionals can be consulted by mutual agreement (e.g. a neutral accountant who evaluates one spouse’s business). If you would like to know more about this model, please call me. I will be happy to send you information material for you to look at and discuss with your spouse. You can find more information about CLP and a search for professionals at www.clp.ch . Also, I will provide a list of English speaking Collaborative Professionals so you and your spouse / your partner can negotiate and be supported in your own language.
