Collaborative Divorce

Collaborative Divorce Attorney in New York City

Working Together to Reach a Mutually Beneficial Agreement

The most recent trend in divorce law is collaborative divorce. A collaborative divorce brings together numerous parties, including:

  • both spouses
    • their divorce lawyers (if they wish to have their lawyer involved)
  • an accountant
  • financial advisors
  • any individuals who the parties wish to involve
  • a collaborative divorce facilitator

The goal of involving these people is to cooperate with each other and work out a negotiated settlement agreement on all issues involved in the divorce. The attorneys agree to waive future rights to represent their clients in a court-involved divorce, thereby creating an incentive to work on the issues with the true intention of reaching an agreement.

Issues Addressed in a Collaborative Divorce

To minimize cost, time, and court involvement, these are some of the issues that are resolved during a collaborative divorce:

  • child custody issues, including visitation
  • child support issues
  • spousal support
  • division of all marital assets

At the New York City divorce law firm of H. Benjamin Perez & Associates, P.C., we have been actively encouraging couples to seek an alternative to the traditional court driven process of divorce. We have found that the collaborative divorce process has led to more successful outcomes which require a minimum of later revising the agreements once they have been reached.
