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.
