Co-Parenting Companion

This is a true story. I recently saw an AI tool being marketed to lawyers with the very specific "benefit" that it could write legal letters in five minutes, while the lawyer could still charge the client for the full hour.

As you can imagine, I had a few thoughts on this strategy. Most of them aren’t suitable for posting uncensored on the internet.

When you’re looking for a lawyer to guide you through your scariest times, you want them fully focused on helping you find workable solutions, not sizing you up to see how much coin they can shift from your asset and liability spreadsheet into their back pocket.

Thankfully they’d pitched to the wrong audience - it was a room full of collaborative and kind lawyers who would have been as irate about the proposition as you and I.

The problem is, when you’re at the start of this journey, it’s hard to know which variation of lawyer you’re talking to - and whether the letter they’re offering to write for you is the one you want them to send - or if indeed, you want them to do anything at all, just yet.

It’s what I love about Collaborative Law.

At the intersection of the very best of psychology, finance and family law lies your collaborative team, coherently focussed on one goal: compassionately helping people transition from one home to two with dignity and respect.

We help you establish child-focussed shared care arrangements, and a division of assets that maximises wealth protection for you all.

If you’re done with BS and just want to build a calm, child-focused pathway to your next chapter, we’re here to walk with you, every step of the way.
..PS If you don't know this already - all the best collaborative professionals love karaoke (some just don't know it yet😁)

Please join us in welcoming Kate to the Co-Parenting Companion team! Kate has stepped into the role of Client Concierge, taking over the reins from Khim.

When your life feels a maze of corners, each one dark and blind, it’s critical that when you reach out for help you know that you’ve found it, right from the first “Hello,” on the phone or warm reply to your email.

When we met Kate, we knew she was the person we wanted to be in that space for you. Every part of our mission for supporting families in transition resonated with the values that beat in her heart. There weren’t enough “Hell Yeses” for how we felt about bringing this beautiful human into our team.

It was an important change, because our gorgeous Khim, who has been filling the role, is the creative visionary behind the scenes. She’s the one creating the tip sheets, visual tools, and website design: everything our parents use to keep things child-focused and calm. As we grow, we need to direct all of her attention there, as those are skills that myself and Cam, our Chief of All Things, most definitely lack!

We’re so glad to have both of these outstanding women in our corner, so we can stay firmly in yours.

Welcome, Kate! We’re so glad you chose us, and that we chose you.
