WHAT IS A COLLABORATIVE DIVORCE?

From Collaborative Practice Institute of Michigan (CPIM): 

​

In the Collaborative Divorce approach, a professional team supports couples through the emotional aspects of divorce as they resolve the legal and financial issues. Both husband and wife retain an attorney who has had Collaborative Divorce training. The parties and lawyers all sign a commitment to reach a settlement without going to court. Depending on the circumstances, other members of the Collaborative team may include divorce coaches, financial professionals, mediators, or a child specialist – all of whom are trained and committed.

Collaborative Divorce focuses on the future and puts children first. Read more here.
