Will Collaborative Divorce Work for You?
In more than 15 years, family law attorney Stephen Asbel has represented hundreds of Philadelphia families in complex divorces. He has a thorough understanding of divorce law and can clearly explain the legal process.
As an alternative to divorce in court, collaborative divorce is a valuable option for families who already know how they want to divide their assets but need an experienced lawyer to fill in any blanks and help them finalize the divorce by making it a binding agreement with the court system.
How Does Mediation Work?
For couples in the middle of divorce, property, or support disputes and other contested issues, mediation is a beneficial option. Instead of representing one side, Mr. Asbel will serve as a neutral third-party mediator to address issues and guide the couple to discuss viable resolutions.
In circumstances where the couple cannot reach an agreement, the couple will proceed to have their divorce heard in court. At that point, both sides would need to get their own attorney, since Mr. Asbel would not be able to represent them in court.
Benefits of Mediation and Collaborative Law
Both mediation and collaborative law are beneficial for many reasons, such as:
- Cost-effective legal process
- Divorces are resolved faster than in trial
- Process is a team approaching, allowing both sides to reach positive resolution
