San Diego Attorney Sandra Morris on Why Collaborative Practice Saves Money

MP900382637[1]

My friend and colleague, Sandra Morris, is an outstanding family law attorney in San Diego and a member of the Collaborative Family Law Group of San Diego.  She recently shared a great article about the cost benefits in choosing Collaborative Practice to do a divorce as opposed to the terrible cost of litigation.  It’s a good read.

My favorite quote from the article: “The economic and time savings in the costs of discovery is enormous. You have saved time, and therefore saved money.”

My Fourth Appearance on The Real Estate Radio Hour on ESPN 1700 AM

By Shawn Weber, JD, CLS-F

On April 4, I had another opportunity to go on San Diego ESPN 1700’s Real Estate Radio with my good friend and fellow collaborative divorce practitioner, Justin Reckers, CFP®, CDFA, AIF®.  It was a great opportunity because we had the full hour to ourselves to talk about divorce processes.  I have been a long believer that people facing a divorce need to take control early and decide what process they wish to use to complete their divorce. So many people and attorneys just jump straight to litigation, which for most people, is the the very worst way to transition a family.  It is more expensive and more destructive.

I was pleased that Justin and I had the chance to tell about mediation and collaborative divorce as excellent options for parties to reduce cost, take control of the outcome and transition their families in as healthy a way as possible.
