Signing divorce decreeDivorce is often heartbreaking for families, and most of them find it difficult to cope. Almost all couples want to keep their divorce proceedings amicable. Collaborative divorce is a new, gentler and kinder way to handle a private matter without going to court. The couple will also have more control over the outcome.

The unique process of collaborative divorce helps the couple collaborate to find a mutually beneficial solution. The process involves the guidance of third parties who are experts in law, finance, and psychology.

Even though the couple doesn’t agree on everything, they are willing to work together to end their marriage positively without any animosity. Families can cope better when anger and negativity get avoided during the divorce proceedings.

Reduced Conflict

Families can cope and manage things better when there is reduced conflict. The collaborative process helps reduce the grounds for conflict by focusing on each other’s needs and that of the family, especially children.

An open conflict between parents can traumatize kids, and when hostilities get minimized, it will enable them to cope better.

Customized Solutions

When the couple starts the collaborative process, they can agree on mutually beneficial terms and conditions.  The terms can be specifically tailored to suit their unique situation.

Fast Results

Most often, divorce proceedings can get prolonged, hurting everyone involved. The longer the process drags on, the more pain and suffering everyone involved endures.

Compared to traditional divorce proceedings, the collaborative process takes far less time. The emotional ordeal that the couple and children suffer gets reduced.

Healthy Post Divorce Relationship

The minimized conflict and customized solutions ensure that the couple can maintain a dignified relationship even post-divorce. The lack of bickering and better communication will help the couple co-parent the kids much more effectively.

Less Expensive

Divorce court proceedings are often expensive. You don’t need prominent attorneys arguing your case endlessly, which can help save money. As the collaborative process involves transparent financial disclosures, you don’t have to worry about hidden assets.

The collaborative divorce process will enable the couple to start life new. When you work out everything amicable, you can cope better with yourself and others.
