"After years of watching families battle it out, it is refreshing to be a part of creating smooth transitions and watching both the adults and children thrive after separation. In the past, I felt that sending clients off to get divorced was like sending them hell. But now, I am confident that the Collaborative Divorce process will be not only dignified and respectful but also result in long lasting viable solutions."
