Collaborative divorce

In the United States, a different phenomenon emerged after the rise of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) in the nineties: Collaborative Law also called Collaborative Divorce.


VERY BIG NEWS

 

What is Collaborative Divorce?

Collaborative divorce is a new way of separating, in summary it comes down to the following. Partners and lawyers and other parties involved are not an agreement.

What does a Collaborative Divorce lawyer do?

Every partner is advised by his / her own lawyer (and if necessary as a psychologist or pedagogue and accountant / financial specialist) in arranging the consequences of the divorce. A participation agreement is concluded in advance, in which the parties agree that they will treat each other with respect, provide all information and keep each other's legitimate interests (and those of the family) in mind. The parties involved also have a so-called disqualification agreement in which they state that they will not involve any other legal proceedings.

 

More about Collaborative Law

In 1999 the IACP was founded, the International Academy of Collaborative Professionals, with the aim of promoting the application and quality of collaborative divorce law. Every year several international conferences are organized.

This rapid development is the result of a transparent and ethical divisional form, which means that we are completely unique. The (formerly) warring parties learn to communicate with each other at a different level, which benefits their children, as well as any children.

The costs for a Collaborative Divorce are low in relation to litigation and the delivered quality is high.

Hamburger Advocaten's lawyer is affiliated with IACP and VVCP (Association of Collaborative Professionals.
