About Me

Dick Price: Since 2000, Collaborative Law has been my preferred method of problem solving. I have practiced law for over 30 years and am a Board Certified Specialist in Family Law. I have found that most people want to get through the legal system with their dignity intact, end up with the best terms they can work out (not expecting to win everything) and without much fighting. While some people are able to work out most or all of their issues and just need a little help getting things wrapped up, others need help in creating new solutions and many prefer doing so in a private and respectful manner. Collaborative Law is a great way for people to work together and creatively solve problems. Almost no cases actually go to trial, so ultimately most parties need a strong, creative and effective negotiator who is comfortable in mediation as well as informal direct negotiations. More information about dispute resolution approaches and what to expect as your family law matter proceeds is available on our website at www.pricelawfirmtx.com. The Price Law Firm, 307 W. 7th Street, Suite 1905, Fort Worth, TX 76102. 817-338-4633.
