Separation & Divorce

An innovative approach to separation and divorce

Many couples facing divorce or separation struggle with the hostile nature of traditional litigation, which can lead to prolonged disputes, increased stress, and significant financial burdens. The conventional court process often exacerbates conflicts, making it challenging to maintain amicable relationships, especially when children are involved. This can result in poor communication and cooperation between parties post-separation, negatively impacting the well-being of the entire family.

There is a critical need for an alternative approach that prioritises the best interests of the family as a whole, facilitates constructive communication, and provides a less adversarial resolution process. Collaborative Family Law offers a solution by enabling couples to work together with specially trained lawyers to negotiate agreements through round-table discussions. However, access to this specialised service is limited, and many are unaware of its benefits and availability.

Key elements of our service

Specially Trained Lawyers

Utilise our Law Society accredited lawyers with specialised training to facilitate collaborative negotiations, emphasising cooperation and constructive problem-solving.

Participation Agreement

Require both parties and their lawyers to sign a participation agreement, committing to resolve disputes through direct negotiation and round-table discussions rather than through court litigation.

Outcome-Focused Negotiations

Shift the focus from individual legal entitlements to what is best for the family as a whole, promoting decisions that consider the long-term well-being of all family members.

Round-Table Meetings

Conduct face-to-face meetings to resolve issues, fostering transparent communication and mutual agreement without the adversarial back-and-forth of traditional litigation.

Enhanced Communication

Promote ongoing good communication and cooperation between parties post-separation, which is particularly important when children are involved.

Privacy and Efficiency

Ensure that all discussions remain confidential and that the process is more cost-effective and faster than traditional court proceedings.

Benefits of the solution

By increasing awareness and accessibility of Collaborative Family Law services, more families can benefit from a process that supports cooperative resolution, maintains privacy, and results in positive long-term outcomes. This solution helps reduce the stress and conflict associated with divorce and separation, creating a more amicable environment for all parties involved.
