A collaborative divorce starts with a signed agreement between the two parties and their attorneys and other specialists that may be necessary, such as financial specialists.  Each individual involved in the collaborative process agrees to certain guidelines, including the intention to resolve the divorce.  If either party backs out of the process, the attorneys involved no longer can represent their client.  This arrangement means that it is also in any attorney's best interests to work toward resolution of the divorce matters being discussed.
