Divorce Options        

Lengthy and costly litigation is no longer the only option. When the right
circumstances exist, you should explore those way to complete a divorce.
What sets our approach apart from most law firms is we work with you
before litigation starts to discuss your case and explore your pre-litigation
options.  

              Pre-litigation options include:

Settlement.
Where the issues are not complex and the parties are
cooperative, a settlement often can be directly negotiated between them
with our office drafting the terms of a Martial Settlement Agreement (And
Joint Parenting Agreement when requested). Use our checklist to help
cover most of the issues in a settled case.

Mediation. The parties can hire a mediator to confidentially discuss their
respective rights and obligations and suggest a resolution. Mediators are
often former judges and other highly experienced family law attorneys.
They are able to give each spouse fairly good idea of what to expect if the
matter is litigated without taking sides.

Collaborative Divorces. This is where both parties retain an attorney to
work out an agreement before a divorce is filed. This works best for
parties with very complex financial arrangements And business interests
And a desire to keep divorce terms confidential. Often the attorneys jointly
hire accountants And other experts to assist with sorting through And
valuing assets.

In all of the above approaches, the firm's time is primarily dedicated to
reaching an equitable settlement And then guiding the case quickly
through the courts to completion - usually in 45-60 days. Keep in mind
that no single attorney can represent both parties. If the spouse without an
attorney needs advice, he or she should consider Mediation, a
Collaborative Divorce or seek another attorney's review of the drafted
settlement documents.
