Collaborative Law is a an alternative approach to divorce outside of traditional litigation.  It relies on a team of professionals, including child specialists, financial neutrals, divorce coaches, and attorneys, to help families work through a divorce.  The parties and all professionals commit to:

  • Negotiating a resolution that’s acceptable to both parents without courts deciding issues
  • Maintaining open communication and information sharing
  • Creating solutions that acknowledge the highest priorities of the family

Collaborative Law acknowledges and embraces changing families and provides resources to help them thrive.  Families are the foundation of society regardless of whether kids live in one house or two, and all families should be honored and respected.

To learn more about Collaborative Practice and how it can help you, please refer to the Collaborative Practice brochure provided by the International Academy of Collaborative Professionals.
