Texas Collaborative Divorce Law

As a collaborative law attorney and collaborative divorce lawyer in Austin, Texas, I know there is often confusion regarding collaborative law issues in Texas divorce and other family law cases. Collaborative law attorneys focus on the idea that the best interests of all parties in a family law dispute such as a divorce, custody or modification of a decree are better served by agreeing to avoid litigation. As a means of dispute resolution, collaborative law lawyers rely on using open, honest communication in a team approach to resolving such issues as property, custody, support and other divorce matters.

At the Todd Law Firm, we serve as a client's collaborative law attorney on the team, providing the client with the sound legal advice they need to make more informed decisions about their future. Along with other professionals such as therapists, financial planners, real estate agents and others, we assist clients in taking a comprehensive approach to resolving their disputes in a manner that is amicable and fair. Contact us to lean how you can benefit from this potentially healthier way to resolve your divorce and family law concerns.

Advantages of Collaborative Law

At The Todd Law Firm, we represent clients throughout the Austin area and surrounding central Texas counties in this non-confrontational approach to divorce. Rather than fall victim to bitter and contentious litigation common in a traditional divorce, couples and their lawyers contractually agree to sit down in a non-litigious team environment offering many advantages of mutual benefit to themselves, such as:

Staying out of court

Using respectful negotiation

Taking control of their decisions

Focused on finding solutions

Safe, dignified environment

Privacy and confidentiality

Potentially less time and expense than going to trial

Many couples find a divorce easier to handle through the use of collaborative law. Divorce terms, child custody and parenting time, asset division, spousal support, decree modification and other issues can be agreed upon without the usual animosity. The collaborative law process is often less stressful for a couple and their children. It can produce fair results since everyone has the same information and nothing happens unless there is agreement on any issue. The goal is to get through a divorce with the least damage possible, and a couple can always pursue litigation later if they feel the collaboration process is not working out for them. There are special conditions related to collaborative law, and it may not be appropriate in every case. Contact us today to see if you case might benefit from this approach through our collaborative law attorney services.

If you are facing a Texas divorce, custody or modification case, protect yourself and your family.
