For Whom is the
Collaborative Divorce
Process Advantageous?
You and your
partner may wish to proceed collaboratively if you:
-
Desire the assurance provided by having legal
representation throughout the process.
-
Want to retain control over your own lives and
the lives of your children.
-
Want to divorce at your own pace rather than on
the Court’s timetable.
-
Wish to reach agreement through open discussions
and co-operative problem solving
-
Desire to build two functioning households that
foster a successful co parenting relationship
for the benefit of your children
-
Do not want the threat of going to Court
to influence your decisions
-
Desire your issues to remain private.
How does
the Collaborative process help you reach these
goals?
-
By creating a safe, cooperative environment
which provides the opportunity for open
communications and creative problem solving.
-
By establishing a team, rather than
adversaries, who work toward a mutually
agreeable settlement, while at the same time
providing direction and boundaries for the
process.
-
By bringing you the expert consultants needed to
address such issues as parenting time,
communication skills, real estate and financial
issues.
-
By scheduling meetings on your timetable rather
than the Court’s.
-
Since the process remains private; only the
required legal documents are filed with the
Court.
