University of Texas - Austin
Some people facing divorce just want to work out a settlement that treats both sides, and the kids, respectfully, without wasting time and money fighting. Some people want to keep their personal business and finances private. Some people want to be the ones deciding how things are divided and what their relationship with the children will be like, rather than turning over the decision-making power to a Judge who doesn't know them or their circumstances. Many people know the stress of going to court is not worth the outcome. For those people, I recommend Collaborative Law.
