Understanding Collaborative Law

On Behalf of | Jun 3, 2020 | Collaborative Law |

In the collaborative divorce process, spouses and their attorneys commit to a transparent process in a cooperative manner, utilizing neutral professionals to assist them in structuring a mutual, global settlement, and if the couple has children, to create a parenting plan and parenting agreement in the best interest of the children.

The benefit of the collaborative divorce process is that parties create their own timeline and meetings with their professionals to reach a global settlement.

Speak with attorney Patricia Alexander as to whether the collaborative process is for you. In some cases, if the process is commenced without litigation, and the parties are together unable to reach a global agreement through this method, the parties will then proceed to litigation with other counsel.
