Collaborative Law

Resolving Cases through Collaborative Law

From Wheaton and the Loop

There are many ways through which a family law matter may be resolved. In addition to other manners of alternative dispute resolution (ADR), such as mediation or arbitration, there is the traditional litigation way in which cases are taken to court. However, many families have discovered that leaving the decisions up to the judge is not in their best interests.

An up-and-coming avenue for resolving a divorce and other family law issues, collaborative law is a process through which the integrity and emotions of a family can be preserved. At the Wheaton, Illinois, law office of Esp, Kreuzer, Cores & McLaughlin, LLP, we pride ourselves on being a firm on the cutting edge of this new way in which to seek a resolution to family law cases. We take the time to explain collaborative law to our clients, discussing the benefits and drawbacks this process may have on their case.

Both parties in the divorce enlist separate and specifically trained collaborative law attorneys. The lawyers' collective goal is to help the parties settle the case. The participants work together respectfully and in good faith to try and find solutions that suit needs of both parties and the children. Our firm can help you understand how collaborative law may be the best way in which to seek a resolution to your divorce and family law matters.

Regardless of the avenue you wish to take in resolving your family law case, our firm is committed to standing by you throughout the entirety of the matter. We assess your situation and provide you with our professional opinion on whether or not collaborative law is in line with your goals for the outcome of the case.
