Collaborative Divorce in New Jersey
An alternative to costly divorce litigation
Collaborative Law provides divorcing couples with a viable, meaningful, less contentious alternative to litigation which is all too often expensive, time consuming, emotionally draining and devastating to families. It is an increasingly popular alternative to traditional adversarial divorce litigation for couples wishing to end their marriage with dignity and respect which utilizes a mutual problem solving approach. The parties and their attorneys, along with other specially trained professionals involved (e.g., custody experts, forensic accountants, etc.) agree in writing to work together toward a settlement agreement without litigating in court. (detailed explanation of how collaborative divorce works )
In general, spouses choosing a Collaborative Divorce end their marriage with:
- less acrimony,
- less pain,
- less cost,
- more privacy,
- more control of the divorce process and,
- with better results for the entire family—Especially Children.
