Best Family Law Attorneys in Longwood, FL

Have you ever heard the term "Cooperative Divorce" before? It means more than just two people cooperating. In a cooperative law case, similar to a collaborative law case, the parties retain their own independent counsel. Once they decide to resolve their case in a cooperative manner, they enter into a participation agreement. The agreement is similar to the participation agreement used in the collaborative law case with both parties agreeing to work in good faith to resolve their issues through cooperative negotiation rather adversarial litigation. The difference is that when parties decide to resolve their differences using the cooperative process, neither party is required to obtain new lawyers if the process breaks down. It is also possible to enter into a cooperative law agreement after the initial case has been filed in the court.
