Global Collaborative Law Council
The Texas Collaborative Law Council (TCLC) is going global.
On January 15, 2009, the TCLC Board voted to change its name to:
GLOBAL COLLABORATIVE LAW COUNCIL(GCLC)
They report that GCLC is an organization that is going to change the way conflict is managed and civil disputes are resolved worldwide.
The Board's decision was based on the need to provide an organization for lawyers and other professionals all over the world who are involved, or would like to be involved in the practice of Civil Collaborative Law.
Civil Collaborative Practice
While Collaborative Law/Collaborative Practice originally arose in the family law arena, many lawyers have realized that it is an appropriate tool in other civil cases. In Civil (non-family) cases, it is still in the early stages.
Probate, employment, medical error, and business formation and dissolution are among the most common areas where civil collaborative is the tool of choice.
