Northshore Collaborative Divorce Group
What is Collaborative Divorce?

Collaborative Divorce is a non-adversarial process where couples select a team of
professionals who help them through their divorce.  The team will help a couple create
a plan for their children and answer financial and legal questions.  The Collaborative
Divorce Team consists of two Collaborative Lawyers, two Divorce Coaches, a neutral
Financial Specialist and a Child Specialist.  Each partner selects their own
Collaborative Lawyer and Divorce Coach.  Together, the couple select a neutral
Financial Specialist and a Child Specialist.

The Collaborative Divorce team has specialized training to help couples:

  • Learn better ways to communicate
  • Answer questions about divorce
  • Deal with emotions
  • Make informed choices for your future
  • Address  parenting and time sharing concerns
  • Create a parenting plan
  • Develop a financial plan
  • Reach agreements

In a series of meetings with members of the Collaborative Divorce Team, couples can
settle their divorce without going to Court.
