Collaborative Divorce This new approach to the family law process involves a team comprised of attorneys, mental health professionals, child experts and financial advisors to act as a settlement team to resolve all issues by utilizing creative problem solving techniques. As a group they “brain storm” all available options for the best possible resolution by “thinking outside the box”. This process eliminates all litigation and is without court appearances or judicial involvement. Terri Miles is a qualified collaborative divorce professional and believes this team approach is beneficial in many families who are able to work toward an amicable resolution of all issues with open disclosure of all financial records, assets, and liabilities by avoiding the usual costly and emotional trauma of continuous litigation.
