Why having a coach or therapist can actually save you time and money during your divorce
When people go through a divorce, especially when there are children involved, there is almost always a strong emotional component. How could there not be. Research shows that divorce is right up there with a death in the immediate family as one of life's most stressful times.
The legal process in Colorado is set up to deal with two major issues. The splitting up of the marital estate and financial support as needed on the marital side and doing what is in thebest interests of the children when dealing with parental responsibilities. The court system is actually set up to avoid emotional issues between husband and wife. This is a no fault divorce state and the only wrongdoing that is considered by the court is financial wrongdoing or endangerment due to domestic or child related violence or endangerment to the childs emotional development.
When you are going through the divorce process there is quite a bit of work to do to gather all of the financial information needed and to make decisions on what you are asking for in terms of division of property and debts, maintenance if warrented, child support and parenting time. It is easy for emotional issues, though completely normal, to get in the way of clear and wise decision making in a divorce case.
In most cases, your attorney is not the best resource equipped to deal with the emotional blocks that might arise for people during the process. Some people just need to talk it through. You can do this with your attorney but for a much larger fee than a divorce coach or therapist and perhaps with not as much expertise. Some people find it very hard to get the financial information together. Often times there is an emotional block at play that shows up as procrastination but the attorney ends up spending time working through the issue with the client.
We have found that even in the most emotionally difficult divorce situations that the addition of a coach or therapist to collaborate with can make all the difference in decreasing legal fees and making good and clear decisions in the divorce process.
Our firm uses a form that allows the coach/therapist to collborate with the attorney without loosing attorney/client privilege or therapist/client privilidge. The collaboration usually goes no further than letting the coach know what is coming up during the divorce process and what some of the emotional blocks might be to making good decisions. The coach/therapist is then left to decide the best course of action to support our mutual client in moving past the emotional block and making the best decisions for themselves and their family. With this support most clients are able to use their attorney wisely, spend considerably less on legal fees and end up making good long term decisions.
