No one goes into divorce wanting to hurt the children.Individual lawyers have the best intentions, too. The system, however, has no conscience. And it's the system that magnifies the pain kids suffer when their parents separate.
In a traditional divorce, one common tactic to get the upper hand is to portray your spouse as an inadequate parent — a strategy that may or may not work. This could have long lasting and negative affects on the children. Similarly, you may be encouraged to gain financial advantage by bartering or position bargaining with parenting rights. Imagine how that feels for the kids. Even if the children are not directly involved in the fallout it still affects them on many levels.
You don’t want to use your children as pawns, yet under the traditional divorce process, this is often what ends up happening.
Fairway Divorce Solutions was founded with one over-riding objective. To protect children, and turn good intentions into good results.
Our way to achieve this is simple. We only negotiate family issues after the financial agreement has been settled. And we help both parents keep focused on the over-riding priority of the children’s best interests.
These Fairway principles may seem obvious. Yet they are remarkably different from the standard model.
