By staying out of court, you and your husband control how fast the process goes. You decide your financial future. You decide your children’s future. You and your husband – not a judge – decide what’s best for your family.

Something else many appreciate is how collaborative divorce keeps your private life between you and your team. Staying out of court means you don't have to air your dirty laundry in a public courtroom.

If we can’t agree enough to make our marriage work, how am I going to work through a collaborative divorce with my spouse?

In many cases, a collaborative divorce teaches you and your spouse how to communicate again. It uses a team approach where you, your spouse and your team of professionals sit around a table openly discussing your needs. There’s no judge. No antagonistic “us verses them” attitude.

Instead, your collaborative team offers a safe place for open discussion. You tackle difficult matters and needs without secrets. Without fears your spouse might hide facts from you. We’re not saying a collaborative divorce is easy. It’s still divorce. We’re here to lessen the pain and keep you moving forward.

All of your team members are specially trained – expertly guiding you through the stumbles and emotional roadblocks that might surface. This helps you take a step back, calm your emotions and make informed decisions about your future. Depending on your needs, your collaborative team may also include a divorce coach, a financial expert and a child specialist.

Why do I need a collaborative team?

You decide which specialists you need on your team. This way, you aren’t paying for a service you don’t need.
