Harvard law and business professor supports the Collaborative Practice approach:

"I am wholly supportive of Collaborative Practice ...it is textbook interest-based negotiation, a great illustration of what we try to teach our students here at Harvard.  Too often people think of collaborative approaches as being soft and concession-oriented, but in fact the research (experimental, theoretical, case study) shows that collaborative approaches are better at 'getting the most marbles' than the traditional adversarial approaches."
