Dallas County Texas, Family Law Attorney
In a divorce, dividing one household into two quickly becomes complicated: Two homes, two utility bills, two separate lives and lifestyles. If a couple has extensive real estate holdings or a business, property division can become more complicated, more emotional - and more expensive.
An experienced family lawyer equipped with the communications training of a collaborative law attorney can defuse the emotions and help both parties negotiate an equitable division of assets.
Collaborative law attorney Deborah Slye Miller is an assertive advocate for your rights in the division of property; one familiar with the financial and emotional benefits of mutually agreed upon division of assets. Call 214-559-6173 or contact her by e-mail to schedule an appointment.
More Cost-effective, Less Stressful
In a traditional litigation model of divorce involving a business, each side hires experts to make asset assessments favorable to their side. In the less combative, more cost-effective collaborative law model, parties agree to have assets evaluated by a neutral professional business evaluator. A couple using the collaborative law model agrees to negotiate an equitable distribution, rather than having a property division imposed upon them by the court.
The collaborative model works well for many couples whose marital property includes such items as stock options, credit card debts, retirement accounts, IRAs, pensions, profit-sharing plans, savings and cash accounts. The collaborative model is especially conducive to crafting reasonable agreements over child custody.
Committed to Communication and Lasting Resolution of Conflicts
As a collaborative law attorney, Deborah Slye Miller is committed to negotiation and communication rather than an escalating series of conflicts between parties. She believes negotiated property divisions that benefit both parties are much likelier to last and help the two individuals begin their separate lives in satisfying, healthy ways.
