Divorce Without Disaster: Collaborative Law in Texas

For a general audience that needs to learn the benefits of collaborative law, this book provides exciting new concepts that can make family breakups less painful. Collaborative law divorces are available in only half of the states, and this book tells how this method works in Texas. The process of a collaborative divorce, which is a nonjudicial proceeding done outside the courtroom, is discussed in detail and contrasted with a hypothetical divorce between the same parties with the same facts but who have resorted to litigation. Through the experiences of people divorcing under collaborative law, their attorneys, therapists, certified divorce planners, and other experts, collaborative law is shown to be a method that saves money and preserves children's self-esteem, friends' loyalties, and the mental health of the divorcing couple., ISBN13: 9780965927376 ISBN10: 0965927377 Material Type: paperback
