Most Texans understand that a contentious divorce can be both emotionally draining and financially costly for both spouses. It can also drag on for months and even years in the most extreme cases. A bitter divorce also can create animosity that affects everyone in a family, including children. This is often seen with child custody disputes in particular.
So how do a couple and a family avoid all of this? Collaborative divorce may be the best option for these couples, especially if they are going to divorce anyway but want to avoid the anger and bitterness they see with other couples while keeping the time and expense to a minimum. In a collaborative law divorce, both spouses and their lawyers sit together and negotiate through the terms of their divorce and all of the issues involved, including child custody, child support, property division and spousal support. They only set foot in a courtroom when their deal is ready to be finalized and paperwork filed.
