About Our Group

Collaborative Divorce Solutions of Orange County (CDSOC) was founded in 2003 to advise couples in and around Orange County about out-of-court options to traditional divorce litigation, including collaborative practice. Our group consists of experienced family law attorneys, mental health, and financial professionals who are specially trained in collaborative practice, mediation, and conflict resolution.

Having personally observed the damage that the traditional court process can do to families, we have adopted the team approach to furnish you with legal advice, emotional assistance, and financial guidance. Our attorneys guide you through the legal process to reach a negotiated settlement; our coaches assist you in managing your anxiety, creating a parenting plan, and allowing your children a voice; and our financial professionals help to educate you regarding the best ways to divide your assets, and to plan for the financing of two households.

The result is that we are able to support you through your transition in a knowledgeable, compassionate and non-adversarial way so that you are able to make the best decisions for your family.

The fee of each of our professionals varies depending on their experience and other factors, but because we are committed to working with you as a team, the overall cost will be less than going to court.
