Mediation and Collaborative Divorce Serving Fairfield and New Haven Connecticut Counties since 1983 A Personal Message from Divorce Attorney Harold Brienes The goal of both mediation and collaboration is to redefine, not destroy the family. They strive to foster a cooperative spirit to problem solving that has among its goals an appreciation that money, while essential, is not the only medium of exchange. That preserving cherished relationships that have grown out of the marriage, finding peace of mind and moving confidently into one’s future life also have an honored place at the bargaining table.
 I call my website "Humane Divorce" because in more than 20-years as a family lawyer, I have never had any clients who didn't yearn for a compassionate way to end their marriage. Yes, everyone wants the best lawyer in town. But more and more people are finding that the path to a respectful divorce requires more than legal know-how. It requires an attorney with a deep knowledge and understanding of the pain that is never far away. Why then is humane divorce so rare? Why do so many divorcing couples - and their children - continue to suffer the anguish of divorce for years afterwards? The answer is that "going to court" or litigation in family law cases makes you and your spouse mere bit players in the most important drama of your lives. It gives the ownership of your divorce to your lawyers, and often discourages the two of you from finding a humane resolution based on your needs and interests. Mediation and Collaborative Divorce put you and your spouse back in charge of your lives. Your trained collaborative lawyers or your impartial mediator help both of you identify your true needs and interests, and guide you to a truly humane parting of ways.
