Resolving Divorce Issues Amicably
Collaborative law, or collaborative divorce, is for couples who agree to resolve divorce issues outside of court. The parties and their specially-trained lawyers work together to craft agreements that consider everyone's needs and interests. This process is less intrusive than trial, and as a result, often minimizes stress and bad feelings among the family. It is especially helpful in minimizing the negative impact on children.

When most people think of divorce, they think of a couple fighting back and forth in court on issues related to child custody, visitation, property division and child support. While it is true that some cases require litigation to finalize divorce issues, many couples can resolve their issues amicably without the time or expense of court.
