Enforceability of Agreements

In the event that the Parties require a temporary agreement during the Collaborative Law Process, the

agreement will be put in writing and signed by the Parties and their Lawyers. If either Party withdraws

from the Collaborative Law Process, the written agreement is enforceable and may be presented to the

Court as a basis for an order, which the Court may make retroactive to the date of the written agreement.

Similarly, once a final agreement is signed, if a Party should refuse to honour it, the final agreement may

be presented to the Court in any subsequent action. Further, only written agreements signed by the Parties

and witnessed will be enforceable in a Court of competent jurisdiction. Verbal agreements, concessions or

statements of any kind which may be made during the Collaborative Law Process are unenforceable,

confidential and without prejudice as outlined in Paragraph 14.

Acknowledgment

Both Parties and their Lawyers acknowledge that they have read this agreement, understand its terms and

conditions, and agree to abide by them. The Parties have chosen the Collaborative Law Process to reduce

emotional and financial costs, and to generate a final agreement that addresses their concerns. They agree

to work in good faith to achieve these goals.
