How is collaborative divorce different from traditional divorce?

The simplest answer is, a collaborative divorce is more than just about legally ending a marriage. That’s what traditional divorce is all about. A collaborative divorce is a relatively new approach that has the two parties working together to resolve issues without litigation and endless courtroom battles. It takes the whole family into account. What is best for both parties and for the children? Studies have shown that collaborative divorces typically do not have ongoing litigation and animosity.

At Logan & Associates, we believe in this approach. We believe that divorce is not the end of the family, it merely changes its dynamics. By helping our clients create an environment where the parties can cooperate and work together, can create an emotionally happy and healthier family.

Ms. Logan is certified in Collaborative Practice, an alternative to traditional divorce for couples who wish to avoid long, expensive court battles and instead resolve their issues in a way that benefits all involved. Using the Collaborative Process, the divorcing spouses employ attorneys together with an interdisciplinary team trained to help negotiate peaceful resolutions that are tailored to their specific needs and interests.

The process preserves a family's privacy and often helps children navigate the divorce more easily because there is less acrimony. From the beginning, resources are spent working toward a negotiated settlement minimizing conflict, not a lengthy court fight with all of the attendant stress.
