Atlanta Collaborative Divorce Lawyer

Expert Collaborative Divorce Attorneys in Atlanta, Georgia

Collaborative divorce is a positive and friendly approach to resolving disputes without using the Court to assist or intervene in a case. The parties use a team of professionals to help them reach an amicable out-of-court resolution. The goal of a collaborative case is to focus on the needs of the family while focusing on a win-win mentality as opposed to the win-lose nature that traditional litigation often entails. The professionals such as Atlanta collaborative divorce lawyers all understand that a well thought-out settlement of the issues in the case is what the goal is for the parties (and their children if there are kids) and timing milestones are usually set at each meeting to ensure that the case moves along in a timely and appropriate manner.

Each party will have an attorney representing their interests and facilitating the legal aspects of their case, in addition to a therapist or counseling professional to help each party. The professionals involved can also include a neutral financial expert and a cooperative parenting specialist to assist the parties with the custodial and parenting time aspects of the case.

While it may sound expensive to have all these professionals involved, studies show that often times a collaborative case is ultimately far less financially draining on a family and the parties than a more traditional litigated case.
