Some people, for various reasons, are uncomfortable negotiating against his or her spouse without help. In the collaborative process, that help is right there; in the room; with the client; every step of the way. While a mediator may provide some legal information, he or she does not advise either client. In a collaborative four way settlement meeting it is common for both clients and for both attorneys to brainstorm as many options as possible. Once all of the options for each of the issues have been discussed, parties are typically in a better position to engage in a productive “give and take” in reaching an agreement, acceptable to both.
