Our Approach
Three Dimensions of Expertise
legal
Your Own Legal Guide Throughout the Process.
Litigation is a courtroom battle. Mediation is a negotiation with a neutral referee. Collaborative is like having your own coach AND being at the table. You stay in control the whole time. Collaborative lawyers work together, even when they disagree, to give you both a full picture of the legal options AND support you in tailoring solutions to meet your specific goals and concerns. The result is a binding and enforceable agreement, created by you.
Financial
The Numbers Need to Be Right Before You Sign Anything.
Our financial specialists, including Certified Divorce Financial Analysts and forensic CPAs, help you both understand the full picture. Business interests, investment accounts, retirement assets, real estate, complex benefits packages, support structures: an agreement is only as strong as the analysis behind it. Our financial professionals make sure you know what you are agreeing to.
Communication, Emotions, Family
Skilled Support Keeps You Out of Court and in Control.
Divorce coaches are the key that unlocks the door to better and faster solutions. By managing emotional triggers and fostering productive communication, conflict is reduced, allowing you to focus on what matters most. For families with children, a child specialist brings in the voice of your children without putting them in the middle.
