Collaborative Divorce

Collaborative practice is a way for separating or divorcing couples to work as a team with trained professionals to resolve disputes respectfully, without going to court.  Each client has the support, protection and guidance of his or her own lawyer.  The parties and lawyers commit to solutions-based negotiation, open communications and not to use the court system to decide issues for them. More information about Collaborative Practice is available through the IACP

This option is particularly well-suited for couples who:

• Wish to keep their family matters private
• Wish to emerge from the divorce on good terms, able to interact respectfully with each other in the community or while raising children together
• Would like maximum flexibility to craft a settlement that will work for their particular circumstance
• Need some support to navigate a difficult and emotional process
