Participating in the Collaborative Law process presents a paradigm shift and many challenges to all members of the professional team.  As a Financial Neutral and an important member of the team, it is the CDFA's job to provide financial data as directed by the attorneys and the clients, which may be a different role than the CDFA is use to.  With over a dozen successful cases as a Financial Neutral, Diane Pappas offers her best practices, from how to get involved with a collaborative group to what to do as a neutral and more importantly, what not to do.
