Dispute Resolution
A recent development in family law in Singapore is the
Collaborative Family Practice (CFP). The Collaborative Family Practice (CFP)
begins before the start of divorce proceedings in Singapore
and allows parties to negotiate the terms of their divorce. This form of
alternative dispute resolution is provided by the Singapore Mediation Centre
(SMC) and aims to help couples reach an amicable solution to avoid an
acrimonious litigation process.
Lawyers in Singapore involved in
this process are specially trained collaborative divorce lawyers. The panel of Collaborative Family Practice
(CFP) consists of nineteen lawyers from leading law firms in Singapore.
Among them is Ms. Gloria James Civetta of GJC law, a top family law firm in
Singapore that also offers services for civil proceedings, business and
commercial disputes in Singapore. Legal advice about family law in Singapore
related to any form of divorce mediation can be sought from law firms in
Singapore like GJC law.
The collaborative divorce lawyers that
assist you in Collaborative Family
Practice (CFP) must not represent you again in future litigation should a
settlement not be reached. This is to encourage a settlement to be reached
between parties. Further, this aims to help provide a safe environment for
parties to negotiate without prejudice.
After completing
the Collaborative Family Practice (CFP)
process, the divorce proceedings
will begin in court. Divorce proceedings will go smoother with a prior
settlement agreement in place completed during the Collaborative Family
Practice stage.
