Collaborative Law Attorneys

The collaborative law process requires both couples and their individual attorneys to agree not to litigate. Professional consultants, such as psychologists, accountants, and business appraisers, may still be utilized to help settle the divorce. During the collaborative law process, couples can create their own terms and conditions in a divorce settlement.

At Beck & Houlihan, P.C., in certain cases, we find the collaborative law process to be a more amicable solution for couples. Rather than spending years litigating in divorce court, collaborative law is a fairly easy and quick alternative dispute resolution that can be handled in a matter of months.

Mediation Attorneys Serving DuPage, Cook, Kane and Will County

Unlike litigation and collaborative law, mediation uses a “neutral third party” to help them resolve any divorce issues. Family law attorney, Joseph M. Beck, is one of the leading mediators in DuPage County, Illinois. As a trained and experienced mediator with extensive knowledge in family law, he can ensure your rights are protected throughout the mediation process.

Many couples may be required to work out their child support and child custody issues in mediation before going through litigation. However, since mediation provides an open door for couples to communicate and make their own decisions regarding their divorce settlement, the process often times mutually benefits both parties.
