The key to a smooth divorce is collaboration.
Collaborative Divorce is a new option for separated or divorcing couples to resolve disputes respectfully and equitably without going to court. The effects of divorce on children and the quality of life after divorce are especially relevant in Collaborative Divorce.

When a relationship has trouble, it can be a very challenging and emotional time. Getting reasonable and accurate advice can go a long way toward diffusing some of the stress partners experience and helping them work toward a realistic and appropriate resolution.
We can also provide independent legal advice on the terms of legal agreements dealing with separation matters, including parenting, financial support, and property allocation.
If you wish to resolve your differences without resorting to expensive and stressful court proceedings, our firm would be happy to assist you with obtaining your divorce and creating a lasting resolution to your issues.
Estate planning includes planning for your death, as well as for your care and your estate if you become incapacitated. Planning for your death or incapacity can be a difficult and worrisome undertaking for many people. Our firm has many years of experience dealing with such matters and would be happy to discuss any questions you may have.
