Dear Fellow Collaborators:
There has been some discussion here about various techniques to help
build practice groups, to enhance the vitality and energy of such groups, to
provide them with training aimed at building a thriving collaborative law
practice community.
Here in Central Ohio we have been fortunate to have one of the domestic
relations court personnel come forward to help us in that regard.
Jerry Daily has been Judge Dana Preisse's bailiff for quite a number of
years now. He is unfailingly bright, helpful and pleasant to deal with. He
also is avidly involved with an outdoor action sport to which he has invited
our collaborative law group for a team-building adventure this coming
weekend.
To my knowledge, our collaborative law group will be the first such
group to take part in a Collaborative Law Paint Ball Tournament! I
expect our experience as domestic relations lawyers will stand us in good
stead as we try to keep our heads down, take random pot shots at the
opposition and wind up with both sides being heavily smeared.
It could be worse. Jerry could have been into bungee jumping.
Happy April Fools Day, collaborators!
Tom H. Nagel
