What is collaborative divorce law?

Collaborative divorce law is an increasingly popular method of resolving divorce cases in Delaware. This method of divorce resolution is based on the idea of finding an amicable solution and mutually agreed upon settlement without having to go to court. This method of settling disputes is done through collaboration, which involves both parties coming together to agree upon an out-of-court settlement. Both parties must agree on a settlement before the resolution is final. The collaborative divorce method in Delaware consists of a few steps. First, both parties will need to hire collaborative divorce attorneys. Both attorneys must be specially trained to represent their clients in the collaborative divorce process. Second, the parties will attend joint sessions with their attorneys to discuss their terms of the agreement. Third, both parties will exchange financial and personal information to come up with a mutually agreeable settlement. Finally, the parties can decide to either sign the settlement agreement or to proceed to a court ordered divorce. Collaborative divorce is beneficial for those who want to avoid a lengthy litigation process, and who want to reduce the conflict between the parties. It is important to note that the collaborative divorce method can take a long time and it can be expensive. It is also important to remember that, unlike court-ordered divorces, the collaborative divorce process does not make any decisions for the parties and it does not have the power to enforce the agreement reached in the collaborative process.
