Your Collaborative Lawyer

Michael Hume is a fully qualified and experienced Collaborative Lawyer.

Separation and marriage breakdown can be stressful enough without the drama, expense and uncertainty of going to court. Fortunately, now there is another way of reaching resolution in a timely, cost-effective way - the Collaborative Process.

It’s a new way of resolving family law and relationship breakdown disputes. The Collaborative Process offers a fresh and dignified approach to resolving the issues that arise out of relationship breakdown where you and I work with the other side to find a fair solution to whatever financial or child-related issues need to be addressed without involving the court.

A collaborative approach allows you a greater degree of co-operation between a range of professionals involved in helping families. You will have access to the skills of child specialists, counsellors, accountants and financial advisers who can bring their expertise to the process when necessary, freeing up the lawyers to concentrate on helping you in the negotiations and focus upon shaping a fair settlement.

Collaborative law has been practised in the USA and Canada since the early 1990s and more recently in UK, Ireland and Wales. It is now recognised as a successful means of Alternative Dispute Resolution.

Call or email Michael Hume to find out more about this desirable way of settling your family law/relationship breakdown dispute, or additionally, have a look at our article on Collaborative law below.
