Collaborative Divorce Lawyer in Nashville, TN

Collaborative Divorce Overview

Traditional divorce litigation is notoriously contentious, lengthy and expensive. One alternative that is gaining popularity is collaborative divorce. During this process, the couple and their attorneys work together to reach a negotiated settlement. When successful, collaborative divorce is less stressful and costly than litigation. The Ewing Law Office LLC can assist you with collaborative divorce and other family law matters in Tennessee.

Each person in a collaborative divorce retains his or her own attorney and signs an agreement stating that he or she will resolve all issues and reach a negotiated settlement. If they are unable to do so, each attorney will withdraw and the couple will go to trial with new attorneys. Because the couple will need to spend additional time and money hiring new lawyers and pursuing litigation if the collaboration fails, there is extra incentive for all parties to work together.

The atmosphere of collaborative divorce is more relaxed than a courtroom setting. With the focus on reaching an agreement, the parties are encouraged to talk openly and compromise instead of arguing. In some cases, divorce coaches are brought in to help facilitate productive conversation between the spouses. The collaborative divorce process can be especially beneficial when there are custody issues to resolve.
