Collaborative divorce or law is a legal separation process where couples who have decided to end their marriage negotiate terms of separation through open communication between the separating parties and their legal team without the need of a judge and court system. Negotiations often involve the separating couple and their layers, a divorce coach, and child specialists. Collaborative divorce revolves around the Participation Agreement; a legal contract that states each party will not go to court but instead work together to a resolution. | Collaborative divorce or law is a legal separation process where couples who have decided to end their marriage negotiate terms of separation through open communication between the separating parties and their legal team without the need of a judge and court system.
