Jason S Newcombe, JD
(Lawyer/Mediator)
Our collaborative divorce practice is probably best described by the words caring and compassionate. By employing a team of trained professionals, we are able provide the benefits of attorney assistance while avoiding the negative environment of litigation, and its often devastating consequences. Our focus is on constructive problem solving rather than finger pointing, adversarial bargaining or artificial court posturing. Our primary goals are to maximize settlement options for the spouses and their children, and to minimize or eliminate the negative economic, social, psychological, and emotional consequences of litigation.

| General Comments |
At Seattle Collaborative Divorce, we are fully vested in the Collaborative Divorce Process. After ten years in the divorce and family law trial trenches, I consider collaborative divorce nothing short of a miracle.
It is not for everyone. But for those with whom it resonates, and for those who are willing to embrace it, the rewards and benefits will truly last a lifetime. No other mechanism for dealing with divorce and family law matters can match its ability to create win-win solutions that truly benefit the entire family.
Indeed, the Collaborative Divorce Process is an incredible tool for divorcing spouses, particularly if they have children. As a father of two girls, I cannot imagine my life daily life not revolving around them. Sadly, however, the traditional litigation model for divorce pits one parent against the other in a combative environment where the children are invariably the biggest losers.
The Collaborative Divorce Process is specifically designed and uniquely tailored to meet the goals and needs of everyone involved, especially the children. Again, no other divorcing mechanism comes close. |
