The Traditional Litigation Approach
Every case is different, and the legal action taken will depend upon the facts of your case. Some cases require immediate action, in the form of a restraining order, for either personal safety, or financial concerns. Other cases require temporary orders which may address issues varying from spousal maintenance provisions, to temporary parenting plans and orders of child support, to the payment of attorney fees and the temporary allocation of personal or real property.

The Collaborative Law Approach
Collaborative Law is another option for resolution of a dissolution matter in the State of Washington. Under the Collaborative Law approach, attorneys specially trained in the collaborative model represent both parties. The primary difference between the Collaborative model and traditional litigation is the Collaborative model strives to resolve the issues facing families in transition by working together as a team.

Under the collaborative model, openness, honesty, respect, and communication are paramount, in the hopes that once the case is resolved, the parties will continue to have open communication as they continue to move forward in their lives.
