Collaborative Practice & Mediation Services

From the division of marital assets to contested wills to business severance packages to buyouts: whether personal or professional, a relationship in conflict can be costly. And if the conflict makes its way to litigation, the financial and emotional consequences can cost even more. Since the introduction of the Collaborative process in the 1990s, financial advisors have adopted Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) methods as a better way to guide couples, families and business partners through difficult financial challenges. Designed to defuse conflict and promote communication, ADR methods don’t just avoid the hostilities that litigation can create; they preserve important assets that litigation can consume. A financial consultant for more than 25 years, Robert (Bob) Bordett brings his experience, expertise, compassion and commitment to resolve financial issues in ways that are non-adversarial, fair and in the best interests of all.
