Collaborative Divorce

Resolving Family Matters with Respect and Transparency

Collaborative divorce offers a private, solutions-focused alternative to courtroom litigation. Block | Reid attorneys guide clients through this structured process—helping spouses reach fair, durable agreements while preserving mutual respect and control over the outcome.

Instead of adversarial tactics, both parties and their attorneys commit to open communication, full financial disclosure, and interest-based negotiation. When handled thoughtfully, collaborative divorce can often reduce emotional strain, protect children from conflict, and lead to more balanced post-divorce relationships.

Collaborative Process Guidance

From the first meeting through the signing of agreements, we coordinate the full collaborative team—attorneys, financial neutrals, and mental-health coaches—to create a clear, balanced path toward resolution.
Financial Transparency & Asset Division

The process requires both parties to share complete financial information voluntarily. We help clients identify marital and non-marital assets, assess business interests, and craft equitable property settlements grounded in full disclosure.
Parenting & Co-Parenting Agreements

Collaborative divorce encourages parents to design parenting plans that truly work for their families. We help structure cooperative arrangements that focus on consistency, flexibility, and the emotional well-being of children.
Spousal & Child Support

Working outside the courtroom allows for greater creativity in developing fair and sustainable support plans. We analyze income, budgets, and future needs to reach solutions that maintain stability for both parties.
Transition Planning

The end of a marriage also means new beginnings. We assist clients with implementing agreements, updating estate plans, and setting up systems for successful co-parenting and financial independence.
