What Is Collaborative Divorce?

Collaborative divorce is a non-adversarial divorce process that allows the couple to work together to resolve their case. In a collaborative divorce, the parties will work with a team of professionals to address each aspect of their divorce, including child custody, property division, and spousal support.

The collaborative divorce process includes the following steps:

• Initial meeting: The couple will meet with their attorneys and the other members of the team to discuss the process and the issues that need to be resolved.
• Information gathering: The couple will gather all the necessary information and documents, such as financial records and information about the children.
• Team meetings: The couple and their attorneys will meet to discuss the issues and develop a plan to resolve them. If necessary, the couple will also meet with other professionals, such as a child specialist or a financial planner.
• Resolution: Once the couple has reached an agreement on all the issues, their attorneys will draft the necessary documents to finalize the divorce.

One of the key benefits of collaborative divorce is that it allows the couple to control the process and the outcome. Because the couple is working together, they can create a solution that meets their needs and the needs of their children. Collaborative divorce can also be a less stressful process because it does not involve litigation.

While collaborative divorce can be a good option for many couples, it is not the right choice for everyone. If you and your spouse are not able to work together, a traditional divorce may be a better option. Our attorney will help you decide if collaborative divorce is the right choice for you.

Collaborative Divorce vs Mediation

Collaborative divorce and mediation are both non-adversarial divorce processes that allow the couple to work together to resolve their case. In both processes, the couple will work with a team of professionals to address each aspect of their divorce, including child custody, property division, and spousal support.

While the processes are similar, there are some key differences between collaborative divorce and mediation. In a collaborative divorce, the couple will meet with their attorneys and the other members of the team to discuss the process and the issues that need to be resolved. They will also meet with other professionals, such as a child specialist or a financial planner.

In mediation, the couple will work with a neutral third party, called a mediator, to help them reach an agreement. The mediator does not represent either party and cannot provide legal advice. They will help the couple communicate and work together to reach an agreement.

Another key difference between the two processes is that if the couple is not able to reach an agreement in a collaborative divorce, they will need to hire new attorneys to represent them in court. In mediation, the couple can still go to court if they are not able to reach an agreement, but they can also hire attorneys to represent them in court.
