Resolving Divorce Disputes Through Collaborative Law

Reducing Stress and Discord Out of Court

Among the many fears that can grip individuals facing a divorce a Mechanicsburg are concerns that the divorce process will “get ugly,” create even more animosity than currently exists, and lead to a lengthy legal process that will be costly.

Collaborative law is designed to minimize stress and resolve differences, and often brings other advantages over a courtroom battle, including:
  • Allowing participants to retain control over their divorce process, by keeping decisions out of the hands of the courts
  • Encouraging parties to communicate and amicably resolve their legal matter
  • Saving participants money and time, by expediting solutions by effectively addressing issues and allowing couples to share helpful resources such as financial experts and counselors
  • Protecting participants’ privacy, by allowing parties to choose not to enter private documents into the public domain

How Does Collaborative Law Work?

In collaborative law, both parties retain a collaborative attorney and work through a series of four-party meetings to resolve issues and reach resolution. Through open, honest conversations the parties seek to hammer out agreements that address the various issues inherent to the end of a relationship.

Parties can bring in different specialists, including accountants, counselors, mortgage brokers, realtors and child counselors in an environment and structure aimed to facilitate win-win agreements and compromise.
