Free Collaborative Divorce Guide Now Available

I have posted in the past about the benefits offered by the collaborative divorce approach.  As you will recall, this approach was invented in 1990 as a better way to resolve divorce cases, as opposed to battling in court.  Collaborative divorce is a dispute-resolution alternative in which both spouses and specially trained collaborative lawyers negotiate the settlement outside of court (along with neutral financial and/or mental-health professionals), with an agreement that the parties must retain new attorneys before filing a contest divorce action.

Divorce Magazine has launched the Collaborative Divorce Guide, which includes a guide to the collaborative four-way-meeting process, information on creating a financial settlement, how to break the news to your children, and helpful interviews with collaborative divorce experts.  Dan Couvrette, the publisher and CEO of Divorce Magazine, said

"We support Collaborative Divorce as an option because divorcing parties should have at least two primary goals:  First: to divorce as amicably as possible; nobody wins a battle. Two: if the divorce is complicated at all (due to children and assets), people need professionals to make certain their best interests are being taken care of. The Collaborative Divorce process helps achieve both of these goals.  We've produced the Collaborative Divorce Guide to help increase awareness of the process and to help divorcing people understand how it works."

As a trained collaborative divorce lawyer myself, I recommend that anyone who is considering a divorce and who wants to explore the possibility of an amicable resolution review this information. You can download your own copy of the free Collaborative Divorce Guide by clicking HERE and you can access other articles on collaborative divorce at Divorce Magazine's website by clicking HERE.
