What Is the Difference Between Collaborative Divorce & Mediation?
In collaborative divorce, you and your spouse will sign a contract to agree not to go to court for any reason. If you and your spouse run across an issue that you are not able to agree on, you will not be able to go to court to get it settled. You will need to hire new attorneys and start the divorce process all over again in order to appear in court. This differs from mediation, which allows parties to go to court if necessary to seek a resolution without having to start the process over again.

During the meetings, you and your spouse will work together to make decisions regarding the division of assets and marital property, liability for marital debts, spousal maintenance, and other matters. Once you and your spouse reach a settlement, you will conclude the process without having to go to court.
