What Is Collaborative Divorce?
In a traditional contested divorce, spouses hire lawyers to outmaneuver each other and “win” their divorce. This adversarial cat-and-mouse game exaggerates disputes rather than solving them. Litigation only swells the cost of divorce, drags out the timeline, and creates friction and resentment that often resurface later.
Collaborative divorce is a practical twist on divorce negotiations which takes the confrontations and gamesmanship out of the equation. Similar to pre-suit mediation, the collaborative divorce process is voluntary and is geared toward an out-of-court settlement. Unlike pre-suit mediation, there is typically a team of professionals assisting the parties during their settlement negotiations. The professional team typically is made up of two collaboratively trained attorneys, one representing each party, a neutral facilitator, and a neutral financial professional.
Collaborative divorce is less expensive than traditional litigation—however, it is more expensive than pre-suit mediation because it is a more formal process, and it typically involves a team of collaboratively trained professionals billing hourly for their services.
