Testimonials
From a Collaborative Divorce Case: Thank you
all for your patience and perseverance. It was not easy, but we reached the end of this difficult process. This is my second divorce (I am not good at this relationship thing) and my first experience
with Collaborative Divorce. In either case divorce is NOT an easy journey. The Collaborative part definitely makes
it more tolerable. Most importantly, I cannot envision that we could have ended up with such a flexible agreement to
account for most our wishes otherwise. I believe our child
is and will be the ultimate beneficiary of this process. If we ended up fighting this in court and getting really aggravated
with each other, our current living accommodations would probably not be practical, with a "thin wall" separating
us, to include a door for our child. She and I benefited also
in several ways. We have still several high value assets in common and will continue to manage them together. It
would have been so much worse to be forced to liquidate all assets, regardless of the market conditions or the economy, just
to "break all ties". So I thank you all for your
help and support. There was a major trust issue between us and it is hard to collaborate when you don't trust. What
I learned from this experience is that it is not the other person that we need to trust, but the process. Whether we
speak softly or we shout, all we can get is about half. Soft is better.
