It isn&#8217;t because I don&#8217;t know what I do, rather it&#8217;s because I do something so simple to comprehend they say, &#8220;Wow, that&#8217;s brilliant.&#8221;<o:p><\/o:p><\/div>\n<div style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;\">I am an alternative dispute resolver between people over an animal.&nbsp; I am the person you seek out when you have a dispute involving animals before you resort to litigation.&nbsp; Unnecessary litigation, involving people in conflict over an animal, runs rampant.&nbsp; Not only does it run rampant, it is ham strung in court by<a href=\"http:\/\/www.blogger.com\/blogger.g?blogID=6975479858383198606\" name=\"_GoBack\"><\/a> the laws that have not kept up with the changing place of animals in our lives and culture.&nbsp; If we could find a way to speak to each other in a safe environment, guided by a neutral mediator, we&#8217;d find most people in conflict have a great deal in common and just need to be heard to resolve the conflict.<o:p><\/o:p><\/div>\n<div style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;\">By definition, Mediation is a process in which parties in conflict work with a neutral third party who provides them with a safe environment in which to have a much needed conversation.&nbsp; Its sister practice, <span style=\"color: black;\">Collaborative law is a process where each client&#8217;s attorney signs an agreement <b>not <\/b>to take the case to trial. <\/span>&nbsp;Both create a safe environment in which clients can resolve a matter.&nbsp; In collaborative law, your own attorney helps you navigate the legalities more efficiently.&nbsp; A colleague of mine, Katherine Eisold Miller, summarizes the difference between the two quite cleverly.&nbsp; She says, &#8220;Mediation is like going to a dance alone and collaborative is going to the dance with a friend.\u201d<o:p><\/o:p><\/div>\n<div style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;\">These processes have found their most prevalent niche in family and divorce law.&nbsp; The desire for maintaining a relationship between the parties, especially in a divorce involving children, has families choosing to proceed in their conflict via mediation or collaborative practice.&nbsp; These methods ease the parties out of their current dynamic and into their future dynamic with the least amount of animosity.&nbsp; Parties decide how their family will look post divorce.&nbsp; The mediator or collaborative attorney helps them write an agreement that the court will accept, reviewed by an attorney in mediation, recognizing the parties\u2019 desire to remain cordial going forward.<o:p><\/o:p><\/div>\n<div style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;\">In animal conflict, as in divorce, emotions run very high.&nbsp; Don&#8217;t ever tell a dog or cat owner, whose pet died due to the negligence of another, that it was just a dog or cat.&nbsp; However, this is just what the law does.&nbsp; By statute and case law an animal is property and so only has the rights and value of property, (i.e. a chair).&nbsp; In an alternative dispute resolution process, mediation or collaborative, the intrinsic value of the pet can be addressed and respectful discussions can be had acknowledging the value of a pet to all parties concerned.&nbsp; <o:p><\/o:p><\/div>\n<div style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;\">These discussions enable the pet owner to speak freely about their feelings over the loss of their pet and grieve.&nbsp; The person(s) responsible for the loss can speak as well.&nbsp; Acknowledgement of positions and feelings may enable the parties to move from position to solution.&nbsp; Providing a pet owner the opportunity to hear the animal caregiver\u2019s side of the unfortunate event and all they did to save the pet can give peace to an otherwise unknown variable.&nbsp; It gives the pet owner the opportunity to tell the caregiver their bedside manner may need work. Everyone involved in the unfortunate outcome is able to say they are truly sorry.&nbsp; All the parties are able to express their disappointment in being unable to save the pet. No admissions of guilt or responsibility are required; rather an acknowledgement of the importance of a pet\u2019s life to all parties is confirmed.&nbsp; The fact both parties wanted the pet to live is usually lost in translation when parties start pointing fingers and stop listening.&nbsp; To be able to acknowledge this fact, in a neutral setting, does wonders toward diffusing a highly conflicted situation.<o:p><\/o:p><\/div>\n<div style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;\">Animal conflicts have yet to become the beneficiary of alternative dispute resolution in any meaningful way.&nbsp; In fact some law schools that are deeply involved in the study of animal law eschew the use of ADR in any animal conflict.&nbsp; They feel its use portends the loss of an opportunity to make law protecting those and future animals. This thinking has its place in the protection of our animals.&nbsp; Yet, in a majority of conflicts between people over animals, the opportunity to have a conversation may resolve the conflict, thus freeing up the court to address more serious conflicts involving animals.&nbsp; <o:p><\/o:p><\/div>\n<div style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;\">Opening up a dialogue for conflict resolution, on the parties\u2019 terms, gives the people involved in the care and protection of an animal an infinite number of solutions to explore in their crisis.&nbsp; Asking a court to find a solution to a particular conflict diminishes the variety of solutions available to the parties.&nbsp; In the end, the court ordered solution might serve neither the people nor the animal.&nbsp; Who among us know how a court will decide?&nbsp; Are we willing to take the risk when mediation may guide us to a settlement that is palatable to both sides and benefits the animal for whom the conflict arose?&nbsp; Just a thought.<o:p><\/o:p><\/div>\n<div style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;\">As I sit here, with the sun going down, the ceiling fan slowly moving the warm summer air on me and my dogs, I thank God I&#8217;ve been guided to focus my practice on this different method of conflict resolution.&nbsp; All of us should be able to keep these wonderful souls in our lives.<span style=\"color: red;\"><o:p><\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in;\">Happy 4th of July.<o:p><\/o:p><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><span style=\"line-height: 115%;\"><o:p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hamiltonlawandmediation.com\/HLMContact.html\" target=\"_blank\">\u2014Debra Vey Voda-Hamilton<\/a><\/o:p><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\"><\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<span class=\"et_bloom_bottom_trigger\"><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As I sit here on my porch after a summer thunderstorm, surrounded by my dogs, my thoughts turn to the dog days of summer and how my practice, of providing [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":290,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 -
