ABA Ethics Opinion Endorses Collaborative Divorce

The American Bar Association has issued an Ethics Opinion endorsing Collaborative Practice (a.k.a. Collaborative Law, Collaborative Dispute Resolution, or Collaborative Divorce), and responding to the concerns raised by the Colorado bar association opinion that got so much attention in the media and on this blog.

The opinion is available via the ABA web site, but right now it can be viewed and downloaded only by ABA members. At some point in the near future nonmembers will also be able to download it for a small fee.
