About Us
And our Values.
The Mid-Jersey Collaborative Law Alliance is a group that helps promote and support the use of collaborative law to settle divorces and other family-related legal issues.
Founded in 2009, we are attorneys, financial experts, mental health professionals, and advisors dedicated to advancing collaborative divorce in New Jersey and helping couples finding a less adversarial approach to divorce.
MJCLA members meet regularly to share knowledge and experience. Our goal is to educate both collaborative professionals and the public about the benefits of collaborative law. We also work with other groups to sponsor events and share materials that promote understanding and use of the collaborative process.
Collaborative Practice may help you. To find out more information or to speak to a Collaborative Law professional, contact one of our trusted MJCLA members today through the Directory on this website.
Our Values
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 MJCLA’s members are dedicated to negotiating mutually acceptable settlements outside the court system.
The help of additional professionals in areas of finance, real estate, mental health, 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.
