Collaborative Law
Recent Article List
Collaborative divorce is a relatively new concept to many people. It is a process designed as early intervention in disputes to be used instead of costly litigation. Because of it’s similarities with mediation, however, many people assume that collaborative law and mediation are the same thing.
You are heading for divorce, but would like to work things out with your spouse so that you don’t have to go through the War of the Roses (a movie that was funny and scary at the same time).
For many years, the only way to get your marriage dissolved was to have both spouses hire expert Florida divorce lawyers and battle it out tooth and nail.
I have recently received several phone calls from clients, who begin by asking Do you do Collaborative Divorce? When I answer in the affirmative, they are excited and usually mention that the previous attorneys they have spoken with have never heard of this new type of divorce.

Collaborative Law
A spouse who does not make timely support payments can have his or her wages garnished through the Florida Child Support Enforcement Department. The court orders that alimony be automatically taken from the paying spouse's paycheck. The court can also order that the paying spouse give the alimony payments to the Support Enforcement Department, which will give the money to the receiving spouse. The department acts as a third party which manages the collection and distribution of support payments on a statewide basis. If the paying spouse of child support or alimony fails to make timely and sufficient payments, the court can suspend the paying spouse's driver's license.
