Is this marriage worth saving?
Will the children be harmed?
What will be the ramifications of our divorce?
How deeply will it alter our lives?

Ambivalent about ending the relationship
You are the most hurt, misunderstood, damaged, or least powerful person in the relationship
Your partner is using the myriad of divorce stall tactics as a way to stay married
Intimidated by your partner in addressing and resolving complex and difficult issues
We would have a great divorce if it weren't for the other party
The divorce is your last chance to destroy the other party

Why Should I Use Divorce Connections^TM?

Non-adversarial — The goal of the Divorce Connections^TM Process is to reach a mutually-agreed-upon “win-win”settlement, rather than a "win" in court.

· Divorce Connections^TM create a cooperative environment where communication remains open, which provides a setting where you can work with your spouse to meet your children's needs, regardless of their ages. This helps set a tone for open communication and reduced conflict in the future.

Respectful — The Divorce Connections^TM Process is a cooperative approach that acknowledges and addresses the emotional impact of divorce.

· Regardless of what process is used, divorce is always a painful journey. Divorce Connections^TM does not eliminate the pain, nor “use” emotions such as anger to pit one spouse against the other in an attempt to win at all costs. It simply helps parties manage emotions more productively and positively, and to focus on problem-solving rather than on blame-placing. These skills, learned in the divorce process, can then be used effectively throughout one’s life.

Fair – An interdisciplinary team of Professional Members work together to maintain the integrity of the process.

· Divorce Connections^TM establishes a team instead of adversaries. Your attorney supports you. Your spouse's attorney supports your spouse. But you all work together and in doing so, retain control of the process.

Personal — Divorce Connections^TM promotes open communication within a confidential environment.

· Your private thoughts and concerns remain within the Divorce Connections^TM setting. This gives you more privacy and greater confidentiality, and ultimately, less stress during an already stressful time.

Efficient — A more productive process often leads to spending less time and money on the divorce process.

· You can schedule meetings without waiting for court dates. This means you generally spend less time and less money to reach closure. It also means you reduce the fear and anxiety associated with court proceedings. Additionally, in matters requiring expert opinions, both parties can jointly hire one independent consultant, which helps shorten the duration of the case and reduce the overall expense.

Customized — Divorce Connections^TM team members have the power to create non-standard agreements that fit their particular family situations and lifestyles.

· You and your spouse shape the agreement together which means you both are more likely to remain committed to the spirit of the agreement, making it longer lasting. This diminishes the parental conflict that the traditional adversarial system generates and helps protect children from facing the anguish and divided loyalties that often result.
