Wisconsin Collaborative Law Attorney
Many people going through a divorce want to avoid embarrassing court battles and protracted arguments that rarely produce favorable results and which they have little or no control over. A different approach to resolving family law issues is collaborative law. This method is client-centered and client-driven. It can provide a means to maintain relationships beyond the divorce process, such as co-parenting of children or maintaining contact with extended family members. In collaborative divorce, the parties control the process, not the court the court system or the judge.
Attorney Skoglind is a member of The Collaborative Family Law Council of Wisconsin. Attorney Skoglind is trained in working with the collaborative process and can offer knowledgeable counsel to facilitate the resolution of family law issues.
Collaborative law is designed to foster communication between both parties in a divorce resulting in a settlement worked out in a non-adversarial setting. The parties, along with their lawyers, all sign an agreement which contractually obligates them to refrain from litigation in court and requires the attorneys to withdraw from representation should litigation become necessary.
Attorney Skoglind helps advise clients on all issues that arise from the dissolution, such as custody, child support, maintenance and property division. The collaborative law process is also available for post-dissolution issues that need resolution outside the combative adversarial environment of the courtroom.
