Collaborative Divorce

Collaborative divorce is an alternative to a traditional litigated divorce. In a collaborative divorce, there are disputes between the spouses and each person has an attorney to advise them. However, instead of court filings and hearings, the parties choose to resolve their difference through structured discussions and negotiations. Key aspects of collaborative divorce include:

  • The parties maintain a high degree of direct involvement;

  • Creative solutions are both possible and encouraged;

  • The process is confidential and private;

  • No court involvement expect final approval of the divorce.

The collaborative divorce process requires a team effort between the parties, the attorneys, and any outside experts required in order to receive the benefits of the process.

Divorce Mediation

Mediation involves having a third-party neutral professional help spouses work out disputes they aren’t able to work out on their own. It’s also used to solidify parties’ agreements if one or both spouses have difficulty committing to an agreement. Successful mediation results in an irrevocable (no changing the mind) Mediated Settlement Agreement. Legal counsel then draft your final divorce decree from the Mediated Settlement Agreement. So mediation doesn’t actually divorce you. It’s one tool we have available if mediation meets the needs of your divorce. If both spouses can reach agreements, and will stick with those agreements, mediation isn’t necessary. If you’d like more information about divorce mediation, schedule a free consultation. We’d love to answer your questions.

Prenuptial and Postnuptial Agreements

We work with spouses and engaged couples to draft prenuptial and postnuptial agreements. These can be vital tools in financial and estate planning. This is especially true for couples marrying later in life, when you each come into the marriage with assets you’ve built over time. These agreements permit you both to intentionally and proactively decide what you want to grow and nurture together, while at the same time protecting valuable assets you’ve each worked hard over time to build. Specifically, we use these agreements to make assets separate property instead of community. Examples of assets we address include income streams (current and future), specific assets and growth of those assets, future assets you acquire, and let’s not forget debts – those can also be made separate.
