Collaborative Practice: A Different Way to Divorce
Collaborative practice is a way to help maintain the overall well-being of the divorcing family. Children can survive a divorce, as long as their parents allow them to. This process allows all to survive and hopefully even flourish.

DIVORCE WITHOUT WAR:
Mediation and Collaborative Divorce as Alternatives to
Litigation
September 19, 2008
Save the date! Renee A. Rubino, Esq. will present "Divorce
without War: Mediation and Collaborative Divorce as alternatives to
Litigation at the PPSIG's September meeting. Social workers will learn ways to help their clients avoid an emotionally damaging court battle. These methods may also incorporate the use of social workers as "divorce coaches" and/or "child
specialists" to help facilitate communication. Social workers will be
part of the "team" with the attorney (or mediator, as the case may be)
and will help the family through this painful process, as well as help
them to move on and communicate as a "family," albeit in a different
forum. It's so important for parents to understand the effects of
divorce on children and the fact that both will still parent the
children after the divorce, so they really need to learn how to be civil
and communicate. Divorces through the court system can fuel the
emotions and sometimes cause more harm.
