Kim, a child of divorced parents, understands the importance of approaching these emotional proceedings with as much personal dignity and mutual respect as can be mustered under difficult circumstances. Byrd Legal Counsel is committed to adhereing to this philosophy throughout all family law proceedings.

Byrd Legal Counsel recognizes that today’s families take many forms. Alternative Family Law is an area of practice that addresses the unique legal needs of non-traditional families. 

While we offer all the traditional forms of representation, we advise many of our divorce clients to consider collaborative law divorce.

Collaborative Law / Divorce

There is a new, kinder, gentler technique for divorcing couples who need strong legal representation, but also place a premium on avoiding litigation. It's called collaborative law.

Using this technique, couples and their attorneys agree in advance not to litigate. If either party ignores the agreement and goes to court, his or her attorney is required to resign from the case. Kim Byrd believes there are many benefits to this form of divorce.

  • Control - You maintain control of the process instead of a judge.
  • Cost - In most cases, you save money.
  • Time - The processs can go as fast or slow as you like.
  • Emotion - You have time to step back when emotions run high.

Call us today for more information on collaborative law divorce.
