WHAT IS COLLABORATIVE DIVORCE? A voluntary Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) method where couples and their lawyers work together to dissolve a marriage outside court Participants sign a Participation Agreement: if no settlement is reached, attorneys withdraw and litigation must start fresh
THE COLLABORATIVE TEAM Includes both spouses’ lawyers, plus optional neutral experts: financial specialists, divorce coaches, child specialists The process is non‐adversarial, private, and conducted in informal settings .
KEY PRINCIPLES & PROCESS Based on interest‐based bargaining—focus on underlying needs, not positions Requires full transparency: full financial disclosure and confidentiality . Shared commitment to avoid courtroom litigation emphasis on dignity and collaboration
BENEFITS OF COLLABORATIVE DIVORCE Enhanced control over negotiations. Lower stress for the entire family. Private proceedings – not part of public records. Time-efficient and avoids court calendar delays. Opportunity for creative & tailored solutions. Typically more cost-effective than litigation Access to expert advice (financial, parenting, emotional).
WHEN IT'S RIGHT—AND WHEN IT ISN’T Ideal if both parties agree to commit, trust exists, and they seek constructive resolution . Not ideal if high conflict, lack of cooperation, or presence of abuse exists .
HANDLING COMPLEX & HIGH‑CONFLICT SITUATIONS For high-conflict cases, neutrals like financial experts or child specialists can stabilize negotiations If collaboration fails, attorneys withdraw and new counsel must be engaged . Experts help diffuse emotional/intense disagreements (e.g., custody, finances)
