How does the collaborative divorce process affect the participants afterwards?

The collaborative divorce process is entirely different from the normal divorce process and it has an entirely different effect on the family and on the parties. Typically at the end of almost every one of my collaborative cases, we end up hugging each other. It's amazing! Because people are happy with what they got. They got a result that's fair. They got a result that was respectful. It was private, it was interest based. They were heard. They had a sense that they were actually heard and listened to and got wonderful advice from very talented and gifted people and they walk away from it energized. They're whole, they're complete, they can move forward in life.
