There are several paths a family may choose to take based on their situation, such as negotiated agreement, mediation, collaborative law, or litigation. We partner with families to understand each option, the pros and cons, the risks and the benefits, before moving forward.
The videos below provide additional information.
Even couples who agree to divorce amicably often need help resolving difficult financial and child custody issues. In collaborative divorce, each party is guided to an informed agreement by professionals experienced in the process. Having an advocate for the fair settlement of all issues can lead to a more satisfactory settlement to both parties and less emotional strife.
The mediator is a neutral while in a collaborative divorce each party as his/her own counsel whose role is to represent only his or her client. The collaboratively trained attorney provides legal advice to the parties, where the mediator cannot.
Generally, yes. However, the collaborative attorney will assess with his or her client as to the appropriateness of the process.
If the parties terminate the process, they can choose another method of resolution. However, the collaborative attorneys cannot represent the client in a contested litigation.
I hired Ms. Reese to represent me for my divorce a couple of years ago. I had interviewed other attorneys, and I was looking for someone I could feel comfortable with. Someone who would represent my interests, not feeling I had be taken advantage of and most of all knowledgeable and professional. Ms. Reese and her team are all of that and more. She had a very quick and thorough understanding of my situation. Very responsive, punctual and fair. I had a first meeting with her and went back 6 months later; she was on top of everything and I didn't have the impression of wasted time. I strongly recommend Ms. Reese.
Evening and weekend appointments are available under certain circumstances.
