We assist clients with the following agreements:
In our initial consultation we explain the options for negotiating an agreement, including lawyer-to-lawyer negotiations, collaborative negotiations, collaborative practice, mediation, and mediation/arbitration among others. Donna C. Babbs Family Law PC is dedicated to helping clients in Oshawa, Whitby, Durham Region and Peterborough find the right strategy to resolve your case.
The collaborative process helps clients achieve resolution effectively and efficiently. Respectful negotiations replace adversarial tactics. Mutual problem solving occurs in the place of win/lose.
