Collaborative Law - An Excellent Alternative to Litigation

Brenda Keen, founder of the BKeen Firm (formally known as Brenda D. Keen, P.C.), has been a long-time advocate for using the collaborative law process for resolving divorce and family law disputes.

Her extensive experience has shown her how the collaborative law process can help lessen the stress caused by divorce, especially the stress on children.

What Is Collaborative Law?

Collaborative law is a process for resolving differences through interest-based negotiation. Each party is represented by an attorney during the collaborative law process. The parties and the attorneys agree that if an acceptable resolution cannot be reached, the attorneys will withdraw and not represent either party in the ensuing litigation.

The agreement that neither collaborative attorney will represent a party in litigation ensures that everyone has a vested interest in working out a solution without judicial intervention. A collaborative divorce obtained through the collaborative law process is generally less costly than litigation and usually faster and more efficient. The collaborative process is also less stressful, especially if children are involved.

What Does a Collaborative Divorce Lawyer Do?

Generally, a Houston collaborative law attorney helps facilitate a fair divorce resolution to the disputes faced by couples in a divorce. As your Houston collaborative divorce lawyer, Ms. Keen will ensure you have accurate information to make informed decisions, ensure that your interests are protected and guide you through the process to get your divorce finalized.

Is the Collaborative Law Process Right for Me?

Whether the collaborative divorce process is right for you depends on a number of circumstances that are unique to each case. In order to decide whether you would benefit from the Houston collaborative law process, you would need to discuss the issues you face with an experienced family law attorney who understands family law and divorce as well as the collaborative law process. In Houston, Texas, Ft. Bend family law attorney Brenda Keen has that experience and knowledge.
