On December 2, 2015, the Collaborative Divorce Association of North Jersey celebrated the holiday season, at Bel Posto Restaurant, in Hackensack. The smiling faces, above, reflect the festive and collaborative spirit of our colleagues.

There was much to celebrate this year, with membership reaching a new high, the completion of a successful in-house basic collaborative law training, continuing advanced CLE programs, and the ascension of Shireen Meistrich, LCSW, to the presidency of the International Academy of Collaborative Professionals.

We look forward to  the continued growth of our collaborative community to increase respect and civility in divorce.
