Collaborative Divorce 101

Divorce, by definition, is not done alone. However, the question may be, how do you collaborate on a split? It’s all about your mindset as you enter divorce proceedings. If there’s a willingness to work with your spouse in a way that will allow for constructive resolutions, you will be able to separate in a more peaceful way.

This is the focus of a podcast discussion with Melissa Goodstein in Episode 6 of Her Divorce Source with Leah Jones. Leah Jones is a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst. In this episode, Leah and Melissa examine the ins and outs of collaborative divorce, the benefits and when it may not be an option, and the difference between mediation and collaboration.
