Collaborative Divorce

Collaborative divorce, also known as collaborative law or practice, is a legal process. It enables couples that have decided to end their marriage to work with their attorneys and other professionals. These may include financial advisors, child specialists, divorce coaches and others.

Why Choose Collaborative Law?

Collaborative law seeks to achieve a settlement that meets the needs of all parties and their children while avoiding the threat of litigation. No one may go to court. Usually it is the right course to follow when there is a certain level of trust. The entire process is less taxing emotionally. Another major benefit is that it is generally less costly to achieve the divorce settlement.
