Collaborative Divorce – a different way to divorce
If you have found this website, it is likely that you and your spouse or partner are considering a change or ending your relationship. Or you may simply be concerned about a friend or relative who is also facing a similar situation. Going through a separation and divorce is difficult, and the process can be challenging.
Collaborative Divorce offers an alternative to traditional litigation and conflict, and a more productive way to bring resolution to disputes.
Collaborative law may work if you and your partner:
- Respect each other, even if you fundamentally disagree on key issues in the marriage.
- Desire to prioritize the needs of your children.
- Can work creatively and constructively to solve problems.
- Believe you and your spouse can treat each other fairly and ethically.
- Want to control of the divorce process, rather than place it in the hands of a judge.
- Hope to protect you and your spouse from losing assets you will need in the future.
When you are facing a separation or divorce, well-intentioned friends and relatives may offer compassionate advice, but every divorce is different, and their suggestions may not be useful or even legally correct. Sound legal advice can help you make the best choices for you and your family so you all can transition in a productive fashion to the next phases of your lives.
