What is Equine assisted dispute resolution (EADR)?
(EADR) uses horses and interactions with them to facilitate conflict resolution in a unique and non-traditional way. It’s not a formal legal process like mediation or arbitration, but rather an experiential approach that can complement or be used in conjunction with other dispute resolution methods.
How does eadr compare?
When families face conflict, the process of resolving disputes can often add more pain to an already difficult situation. Traditional approaches like DIY negotiations, standard mediation, collaborative law, or protracted litigation each carry their own burdens—cost, time, emotional stress, and lingering resentment.
Equine-Assisted Dispute Resolution (EADR) offers a powerful, compassionate alternative. Ilustrated below.

WHY EADR?
1. Lower Stress, Higher Connection
Unlike courtrooms or tense conference rooms, EADR takes place in a calm, natural setting with the support of horses—highly intuitive animals that help participants regulate emotion and communicate more openly. The presence of horses fosters empathy, insight, and cooperation in a way that traditional settings rarely can.
2. Time-Efficient
Litigation and even collaborative law can drag on for months—sometimes years—consuming your energy and disrupting your life. EADR sessions are designed for meaningful progress in fewer meetings, often resolving disputes in a fraction of the time.
3. Cost-Conscious
Lengthy legal battles come with mounting attorney fees, court costs, and emotional expense. EADR is a focused, streamlined process that reduces the need for drawn-out negotiations and multiple professionals, saving both money and emotional energy.
4. Healing Over Hostility
While litigation can intensify blame and resentment, EADR emphasizes understanding and resolution. With guidance from a trained facilitator and the intuitive support of horses, participants often report deeper clarity, improved communication, and a sense of peace—especially important when co-parenting or maintaining long-term family ties.

Steven Cole has been my attorney for almost a year. He is amazing and I don’t know what I would do without him representing me. He’s very experienced, incredibly smart, communicative, knows how to respond to difficult opposing counsel, and stays on top of my case. He also gives me solid advice. Mr. Cole truly has all of the qualities that make an excellent attorney. I feel safe with him. As a survivor of domestic violence, safety for myself and my children means everything.

I was referred to Colleen and her team by a friend of mine. When I reached out, I was met with prompt reply and added to Colleen’s schedule immediately. As someone who has been representing herself through an entire (messy) divorce with kids, being met with kindness, understanding, and the knowledge that these women have, was something that I will forever be grateful for. Colleen and her team have come up with easy to follow outlines, that truly took so much weight off of going to trial as a self representative. I would absolutely refer any of my family or friends going through similar experiences to them.

Colleen and Sharon make a great team and have been a bright light in the very dark and unjust cesspool we call the family court system of Arizona. There is a lengthy list of nasty, unethical and passive family lawyers here in the Valley, and I've been victim to four of them before finding AZ Family Law Ranch. This firm is different...If you have a family court matter, I'd highly recommend them. They are the best I've found.
