Are there times when the collaborative process cannot work?
The collaborative process generally does not work under the following circumstances:
- If one spouse wishes to use the divorce process to punish the other person, or “get even” for past wrongs. Participants must go into the process with integrity and a desire for a reasonable outcome.
- If there are significant issues that will prevent reasoned discussion—domestic violence, mental illness, or untreated impairments such as alcoholism or drug use.
