When it comes to your family and any difficult life events, there is no one-size-fits-all. As a general guide, Collaborative Divorce is best suited for people who:
- Are ready to cooperate, even when they have no agreements or have strong disagreements;
- Are ready to commit the time for necessary (and often difficult) discussions;
- Value privacy as to family discussions and their financial estate;
- Prefer to avoid public court hearings;
- Want greater control over the outcome of their transition;
- Would feel more confident discussing solutions if represented by their own collaborative lawyer;
- Wish to work towards better relationships with their co-parent;
- Seek an outcome based on their goals and interests, beyond what the law may provide.
