Over 80% of our divorce cases do not end up in court. Instead, we focus on resolving any issues with a constructive and collaborative approach with your and your family’s best interests at the forefront.
Avoiding court proceedings can reduce the time and cost for everyone, help avoid rifts developing between the parties, benefit future communication and relationships, and have a far higher success rate.
This can be achieved through negotiation between both parties, via solicitors or through mediation, collaborative law, or arbitration.
At Stowe, a number of our lawyers are trained and practising mediators, arbitrators and collaborative lawyers. We also have a nationwide network of other professionals who can support you in these areas.
Mediation – a voluntary process where both parties meet with a family mediator to discuss issues and find solutions in a safe and non-judgmental environment.
Collaborative Law – through face-to-face communication and round table meetings, both parties and their solicitors work together to reach solutions by agreement rather than through the courts.
Arbitration – both parties agree to appoint an arbitrator who will make a binding decision on any financial issues and arrangements for children.
These methods help settle divorce cases quicker, more cost-effectively and in a more flexible and less formal setting than a courtroom.
At times, reaching an agreement can be difficult, but you can settle your divorce out of court with our professional legal support and holistic approach.
