Central Jersey Collaborative Law Group Forms

On June 16, 2008, the Central New Jersey Collaborative Law Group (CJCLG) was formed making it the fourth collaborative practice group in New Jersey (the others being Jersey Shore CLG, North Jersey CLG and the Alliance CLG). There are thirty members in this new group. The CJCLG is an interdisciplinary organization with members coming from the legal, mental health and financial professions. During the organizational meeting, the membership elected Joe Noto and Ken Rempell for president and vice-president, respectively.

The majority of the CJCLG membership practice in Hunterdon, Somerset, Morris, and Union Counties.

I too am a member of this nascent group and will report further on our progress. Our first mission is to inform the public about the collaborative option and its benefits compared to other forms alternative dispute resolution.
