Collaborative Law in Folsom

Work Together to Resolve Your Family Matter

Collaborative law is also known as collaborative practice. It is a legal process that allows couples/parties who have decided to separate, end their marriage, or just need to resolve a family law dispute to work with their lawyers, individual divorce coaches, and – on occasion – other family law professionals.

Through this process, other professionals you may work with include but are not limited to:

  • Financial specialists
  • Child specialists
  • Real estate appraisers
  • Tax consultants
  • Other resource specialists

The collaborative process is designed to stay out of court by having the parties contract to a participation agreement that if either or both parties opt to remove their case from the collaborative process and turn to litigation, each party will no longer be able to use his/her collaborative lawyer.

If you are thinking about resolving your case through a collaborative process, choose the Law Office of Tiffany L. Andrews, P.C. Our collaborative lawyers in Folsom are dedicated to serving your needs and resolving your family matters in a simple, straightforward, and stress-free manner.

Why Choose a Collaborative Method

Collaborative cases are intended to help the parties avoid the uncertain outcome of court, achieve a settlement that meets the specific needs of both parties and their children, and avoid the underlying threat of litigation.

Resolving disputes collaboratively has the added benefit of being cost-efficient for the involved parties, as the necessary tasks in the collaborative model are assigned to professionals who specialize in their specific areas. This ensures that tasks are completed without duplication or increased costs. You also avoid all the costs and fees associated with appearances in court, trials, court reporter fees, and other court filing expenses.

  • “Child Custody Case”

    Tiffany was asked to represent me in court as my primary attorney was called to attend another court case.

    Tiffany acted in a very professional manner, was very supportive, Tiffany made sure that she has a good understanding of my case prior to attending court. Whilst we waited for the court to open Tiffany was very attentive to me, asking me if I had any questions, trying to relax me even though this is a highly confrontational custody case. During the wait time, Tiffany noticed that the other attorney was acting inappropriately and immediately challenged his position, to which he apologized.

    Once in court Tiffany took the lead putting forward our case, she did this in a well-structured way. Each point had solid reasoning and when the apposing council tried to interrupt Tiffany politely asked him to wait until she had completed his argument. Tiffany mentioned to the judge the incident in the waiting area and the Judge was very clear that this behavior was unacceptable. The judge listed intently to Tiffany points and contentions, the facts were very clear and he was able to make the required decisions based on her submission without further clarification on my custody request. 

    Despite the fact Tiffany was covering for another attorney, I could not have asked for better support. She is an outstanding attorney, very knowledgeable on custody cases and the rules relating to custody. I would have not had a second thought engaging Tiffany as my primary attorney or making a recommendation to anybody who needs an excellent divorce/custody lawyer. 
    Thank you for your support - you were outstanding

  • “Tiffany Gave Me a Voice!”
    I hired Tiffany to help me in a custody dispute with my ex regarding my young son. During the entirety of my previous relationship and even after separation my ex had intimidated me and dominated any decision made regarding my son. He bullied me and used his financial advantage to make me feel that I didn't stand a chance against him when he filed to take majority custody of our son. I went into the custody dispute feeling weak but as a mother, I would go to any length, at any cost to fight for my son. Tiffany and her staff gave me so much confidence and ensured me that they would be my voice and help me fight for my rights as a mother and that is exactly what she did. Tiffany was extremely thorough, knowledgeable, compassionate, and honest. She did her job and she did it well. Tiffany was very aggressive while staying very professional in front of the judge. I walked out of the courtroom feeling empowered and protected. My family cannot ever thank her and her staff enough. I would recommend her to anyone that finds themselves in a family dispute. She will give you the justice you and your family deserve.

  • “Great Attorney!”
    Thus far I am impressed with Tiffany L. Andrews. I found Tiffany on this very site while on a time crunch. Great reviews gave me hope. The start of my case occurred on a Wednesday night, Thursday night I was informed I needed legal counsel. I searched the web for hours until I came across Tiffany. The morning of Friday I called the office to schedule a phone consultation and informed them I needed a lawyer ASAP. Monday morning Tiffany showed up in court to represent me and I felt a sense of ease. I appreciate that Tiffany is very accessible. If I have a question she responds within a timely manner. She is very knowledgeable and goes the extra mile to protect your privacy and rights. I hope the rest of my child dependency case is smooth sailing from here on out. Thank You, Tiffany, for your help. Greatly appreciated!

  • “Tiffany was there for me, even AFTER my case was filed.”
    Long Story short, My particular case started off as a Divorce & Child Custody case; but soon after Divorce papers were filed; I (a male) became a Victim of a brutal Domestic Violence from my Ex. Tiffany took care of all the necessary documents needed to finalize my Divorce & Child Custody case while I was hospitalized with multiple stab wounds & internal injuries. Tiffany helped & filed documents so that my children wouldn't be taken as wards of the state; & gave temporary custody to a familial relative while I recovered from my injuries. Not once did she leave my side as an attorney while I was in the hospital recovering from what my Ex-wife did... If I could recommend a Family Attorney to anyone in Northern California... I would recommend Tiffany Andrews; there is no doubt about this in my mind.

  • “Very Knowledgeable Attorney”
    I'm the father in the middle of a dependency juvenile hearing. Tiffany Andrews is an upfront, honest and sincere attorney with knowledge in this area that surpasses any other attorney I've consulted with. She was able to educate me and inform me of the different directions my case could go. She gives great advice, something that not all attorneys give, and gives me the facts of what she sees, not sugar coating it. If you're looking for a caring and dedicated family law attorney, I highly recommend Tiffany Andrews.

  • “Divorce & Separation Advice Session”
    Miss Tiffany Andrews gave me the advice that I needed during those 30 minutes, and it was very helpful. She is sharp, quick, a good listener and stays to the point, and keeps the discussion within the context of high priority items.
