Choosing Collaborative Family Practice
With the advent of Collaborative Family Practice, marital dissolution can be accomplished through three distinct processes. The litigation alternative was joined by family mediation in the early 1980s and by collaborative practice in the early 1990s (the genesis of Collaborative Family Practice is found in the work of Stuart Webb, a family lawyer from Minneapolis).

This article highlights the elements of the newest alternative -- Collaborative Practice.
