The Divorce Process
What are my options?
In order to be divorced, all issues concerning custody, parenting time, support and distribution of property must be resolved. There are several ways to reach that goal. Traditional litigation is a court-based process that requires formal discovery, court appearances and possibly a trial. The Judge may decide the outcome. The other three options are known as Alternate Dispute Resolution (ADR). They occur outside of court and result in a Settlement Agreement that is presented to the court at the time of the divorce. Each process addresses and resolves all issues, including custody, support, division of property and collateral issues. To learn about each process, click on the links below.
