Deciding to dissolve your marriage isn’t an easy decision for anyone to make. If that’s where you and your partner are, you are going to need the help of a separation or divorce lawyer. When you are looking for a collaborative separation in Barrie or Vaughan, you may have a lot of questions. Here is information to help you understand what a collaborative separation is and how it can benefit you and your partner.
Collaborative Separations
When you and your partner spend your evenings and weekends fighting, it isn’t good for anyone. This is especially true if you and your partner are parents. One of the best ways to work through all of the issues that have cropped up in your marriage is to separate and seek guidance or counseling to see if you and your partner can put your family back together.
If one of you moves out of the house, you may be able to try a collaborative separation. In a collaborative separation, you and your partner work through all of the issues within your marriage and you hammer out a separation agreement, which means that you decide child custody issues, child support and visitation, parenting and schooling issues, and any other problems while you are not living together. This collaborative separation may give you time to breathe and to make decisions regarding your future as partners and as a family. Many partners emerge from collaborative separations stronger and healthier in their marriages, or they are better partners with each other outside of marriage.
