Uniform Collaborative Law Act
In the United States, the Uniform Collaborative Law Act was adopted in 2009 by the Uniform Law Commission, and thereby became available to the individual States to enact as law. In 2010, the Uniform Collaborative Law Act was amended to add several options and renamed the Uniform Collaborative Law Rules and Act. As of October 2011, the Uniform Collaborative Law Act was enacted into law in the states of Utah, Nevada, and Texas, and was pending enactment in several additional U.S. states.
