Separating Together

How do we negotiate in the collaborative law process?

We do not use the traditional negotiation model where each party is trying to win at the expense of the other. In the collaborative process, we help you and your spouse identify what is important to each of you, and then help you find mutually acceptable solutions to your address your situation.

This is what we work hard to achieve for our clients in the Collaborative Law Process. While divorce is never easy, we do our best to minimize the stress. A recent client sent us the following appreciation.

“As you could obviously tell, I was nervous and apprehensive yesterday. Just wanted to let you know that I appreciate the grace and kindness that you both displayed during the meeting. Doesn’t mean that I’m happier now about going through this, just more reassured that it is the best path forward. “

A few words from clients of Separating Together:

"Your guidance and obvious care were instrumental to help us avoid a schism that would have been devastating to our well-being and respect for ourselves and our partner and friend of 25 years. That we were able to separate with peace of mind and, surprisingly, with some humor, is a testimony to your ability and the validity of this collaborative process. We will be forever grateful that you helped us maintain our mutual friendship and affection."
​
"Excellent, and would recommend them to anyone seeking a collaborative and respectful way to move through the marital separation experience. My lawyer was consistently responsive to questions, provided readily understandable answers, and conducted herself and our process in a professional, respectful manner"
​
"Thank you for all of your help and patience and for listening. It is such a relief to have reached this point. Collaborative Law is the way to go when at all possible".
