Welcome
There is a healthy alternative to divorce as usual and
it begins with something you both can agree on: self-respect
Collaborative Law Practice
The end of a marriage is tragic and the process of divorce can often add to the pain. Divorce is colored by feelings of loss, confusion, and anger; it is hard to see a hopeful future when you and your partner can only see each other as adversaries.
Divorce doesn't have to be this way. Inovative professionals (lawyers, mental health professionals, and financial specialists) have developed a constructive alternative to divorce as usual - the Collaborative Law Practice model.
Collaborative Law Practice is a thoughtful, reasoned approach to divorce that is based on 3 principles:
- A pledge not to go to court
- An honest exchange of information by both spouses
- A solution that takes into account the highest priorities of both adults and their children
Collaborative Law Practice operates from a foundation of mutual respect and cooperation; encouraging you and your spouse to reach a workable settlement by building on areas of mutual agreement.
