Respect
The Collaborative Practice agreement to acknowledge and maintain each individual's dignity and respect supports both parties' highest goals. With open communication and information sharing, all parties continue to focus on their commitment to mutual respect throughout the Collaborative process.

Resolve
Can serious conflict be resolved without going to court? It can, and IACP members are dedicated to negotiating mutually acceptable settlements outside the court system. The help of additional professionals in areas of finance, personal matters, and child custody further strengthens the goal of resolution.

Renew
When mutual respect and a resolve to manage differences are maintained through Collaborative Practice, moving forward has a realistic basis for success. With a more positive process, new beginnings and opportunities take root more quickly.
