Getting an Amicable Divorce in West Chester PA
What is a collaborative divorce in Pennsylvania? It is a divorce negotiated without trial: a divorce in which the terms are agreed upon by both spouses and their attorneys prior to presenting the final agreement to a judge without a trial. It is often referred to as an amicable divorce or friendly divorce. Learn more about getting an amicable divorce by speaking to West Chester PA divorce attorney Joshua Janis. Mr. Janis is experienced in representing parties in collaborative divorce in Chester County and throughout the Philadelphia PA area.
In a collaborative divorce, both spouses and their collaborative attorneys sit down and work through every aspect of the divorce agreement together. Prior to the start of the process, both parties sign an agreement not to take the matter to court. If an agreement cannot be reached and one or both spouses choose to pursue litigation, both collaborative lawyers would be disqualified from further representation and the spouses would need to obtain new legal representation for litigation. The purpose for this framework is to encourage serious commitment and collaboration by both parties to resolve the matters in dispute jointly.
