Yes, we can do it.
We help established families with complex finances and assets in excess of two million dollars to resolve their divorce without fighting in court.
The truth is that divorce doesn’t have to be a hole that takes your time and money. Legal battles, court hearings, and long delays are not necessary. If you have complex finances, business interests, real estate, and investment accounts, you very likely already know that litigation is not your first choice. Professionally guided settlements generally save you time and money when compared to litigated outcomes. This is true in both business and in divorce.
At Mindful Divorce, P.A., we help established families reach private divorce settlements. We help you to avoid unnecessary delay, reduce conflict, and make informed decisions.
The Secret Is Simple
We commit in writing not to fight in court.
We sign a Participation Agreement, along with your spouse and their attorney. This agreement provides that if either spouse decides to leave the collaborative process and go to court, the collaborative attorneys are disqualified from representing them in litigation.
That written commitment changes the entire dynamic of your divorce.
Instead of preparing for trial, we prepare for settlement. Instead of building arguments for court, we build solutions for your family. Instead of spending time and money on unnecessary conflict, we work with the right professionals to help you understand the facts, the law, and your options.
Complex Finances Require a Better Process
The families that we choose to work with require much more than dividing bank accounts and a home.
You may need to address real estate, retirement accounts, investment accounts, business interests, executive compensation, tax concerns, estate planning issues, and long-term financial security. You may also need to protect your children from unnecessary conflict while creating a parenting plan that works for your family.
In traditional divorce litigation, these issues can become drawn out battles.
At our office we build a team to help solve them.
That team often includes a neutral financial professional, a facilitator, and two attorneys. We may represent you, and we then identify other experienced and trustworthy collaboratively trained counsel that your spouse may interview to represent him/her. The objective is to give you and your spouse the information and legal guidance you need to make informed decisions.
To be clear, this does not mean your divorce will be easy. They rarely are. But when both spouses are committed to the process, have the right team, and are ready to do the work, divorce moves much more efficiently and produces much better results for the entire family.
Let’s Get to Work
You should not have to accept the idea that your divorce will take 12 months or more. You do not have to spend your money on unnecessary court fights. You can hire smart, experienced professionals who are motivated to help you find solutions instead of creating delay.
