Collaborative Divorce

Collaborative Divorce is a legal divorce process that allows couples to negotiate all the terms of a divorce, without the need for mud-slinging or fighting in court. Couples will use a combination of mediation and negotiation to reach an agreement on the critical terms of divorce, like property and debt division, child custody and child support, and spousal support. You and your attorney  also assemble your collaborative divorce team, including a divorce coach, financial specialist, and child specialist, if needed.  This process is completely voluntary and if you are both willing to set aside your differences and discuss your divorce rationally, you may save time and money using the collaborative process while staying away from litigation where a judge has the final say on terms of agreement.
