How do I keep the collaborative divorce process confidential?

In South Carolina, the collaborative divorce process is designed to allow couples facing divorce to work through their issues in a confidential setting. During the process, both parties are encouraged to sign a confidentiality agreement, which outlines the information that can be disclosed outside of the collaborative process, and all communication and discussions will remain confidential. Additionally, any documents exchanged as part of the collaborative process are subject to the confidentiality agreement. This means that if any party breaches the agreement, legal action can be taken. During the collaborative process, both parties are free to discuss any matters related to the divorce, as long as the information is not confidential. This ensures that the discussions or negotiations discussed during the collaborative process remain out of the public eye and remain confidential. Finally, the collaborative process itself is usually kept private between the divorcing couple and their respective divorce attorneys. Documents generated from the collaborative process such as mediation agreements or settlement agreements cannot be disclosed to anyone outside of the parties involved, without the consent of the parties involved. This helps ensure the privacy of the divorcing couple and prevents any personal matters from being exposed during the process.
