Legal professionals specializing in dissolution of marriage offer differing approaches to navigating the process. One path involves adversarial representation, where an attorney advocates for a client’s interests in court. The other utilizes a neutral third party to facilitate communication and agreement between both spouses.
Choosing the appropriate method has significant implications for cost, emotional well-being, and the overall duration of the proceedings. Historically, litigation was the primary means of resolving marital disputes. However, alternative dispute resolution, emphasizing cooperation and compromise, has gained prominence as a less combative and often more efficient option.
