“Every dart shot at your ex goes through your child’s heart.”

Collaborative Law is a form of Alternative Dispute Resolution. It offers parties the chance to resolve critical issues outside a courtroom, usually at less expense than proceeding to trial. The entire collaborative process occurs outside of the court system, so no court documents are prepared, filed, or seen by the public or by a judge until the divorce is finalized.

Using the collaborative process, the couple, their attorneys, a neutral financial professional, and a facilitator comprise a team to work toward the best solution for the family so that all family members thrive. The dialogue during team meetings helps to establish healthy communication patterns to assist the family post-divorce.

As a female collaborative divorce accountant, Harriett provides the following, as needed in each unique situation:

  • organize financial documents
  • prepare divorce financial affidavits
  • calculate marital and non-marital assets and liabilities
  • calculate values for family businesses, pension plans, stock options
  • prepare schedules for equitable distribution of  the marital estate
  • determine each party’s income

The stakes are high when a family business, a professional practice or a senior member of a corporation is involved. Having a financial expert on the team who has a thorough understanding of business and finances greatly enhances the collaborative divorce process.
