Bringing Down the Costs
Creative problem-solving to keep divorce affordable
We understand that getting divorced is expensive and comes at a time when funds are typically tight. You’re transitioning from one household to two, and you may need more childcare than you have in the past.
We always counsel our clients on ways to avoid long, drawn-out litigation in favor of creative solutions.
1. Uncontested or Roundtable Divorce
If you and your spouse have the bones of an agreement, and just have a few small issues to hammer out, or even if you have a lot of issues unresolved, we can help facilitate an uncontested divorce.
We use a variety of strategies to help bring divorcing couples to a final resolution that our clients can be happy with.
2. Collaborative Divorce
This is a fairly new process that is being used very successfully in many divorce cases across the U.S.
Collaborative divorce is a private process whereby you and your spouse participate in a series of negotiations with your attorneys (and sometimes other experts) on hand, and attempt to resolve child custody and division of assets between yourselves, without resorting to the trial process.
3. Mediation
Mediation is a confidential process between you and your attorney, your spouse and their attorney, and a neutral third party (the mediator).
The goal of mediation is for the third party to help divorcing spouses reach common ground to facilitate a settlement. Mediation in Alabama is typically successful in approximately fifty percent of cases. Accordingly, it can be a very powerful tool to avoid the trial process and obtain a divorce fast, and relatively easily.
