Collaborative Law
When you decide to proceed with the collaborative divorce law process, all parties agree sign a contract that they will not litigate, promising to give complete and full disclosure. Working as a team, there is no formal discovery conducted by either party. While financial planners and other specialists are used to assist with resolution, in the end the final decision is yours. A very open process, your settlement will not be subject to the will of a judge.
Many couples find a lot of benefits with the collaborative divorce process, including less acrimony and more control of the process. It allows parties to move on their own terms and fosters a more positive environment for the children involved. It gives you a platform to build upon establishing positive family relationships after divorce.
If a resolution is not achieved, you can end the collaborative law process and pursue a traditional divorce. However, both parties will have to find new lawyers.

She will help you see where you will be financially and help you prepare the future of your children.
