Cooperative Divorce is very similar to Collaborative Divorce. In a cooperative divorce both parties and the attorneys commit in good faith to do the following:

• Cooperate by acting civilly at all times and by responding promptly to all reasonable requests for information from the other party.

• Cooperate by fully disclosing all relevant financial information.

• Cooperate by obtaining joint appraisals and/or other expert opinions before obtaining individual appraisals or expert opinions.

• Cooperate by obtaining meaningful expert input before requesting custody study or the appointment of a guardian ad litem.

The advantages of going this route is that by following all the steps listed above, a framework is established for a structured fair settlement. This process also limits you attorney’s fees and you can rest assured that the attorneys are trying to settle your case. Feedback from previous client’s indicates that this process could promote cooperative co-parenting of your children.
