St. Louis Collaborative Family Law Association members Susan Amato and Dr. Catherine Hasler were recent guests on The Respectful Divorce podcast discussing the upcoming Divorce With Respect Week® initiative. The Respectful Divorce Podcast is hosted by Tim Crouch and discusses with divorce professionals no court options that are available to divorcing couples.
“I did some litigated family divorces when I was a young lawyer and I immediately thought there has got to be a better way to solve these problems,” said Amato, a Clayton Collaborative Divorce attorney. “I started doing mediation but for some people it wasn't enough help. When the concept of Collaborative Divorce came to my desk I did some reading about it and rounded up some like minded colleagues and we now have a fantastic Collaborative Divorce community in St. Louis now.”
During Divorce With Respect Week® Collaborative Divorce professionals in the St. Louis area will offer virtual 30 minute divorce consultations for free. Divorce With Respect Week is March 3rd through the 9th. To book a free consultation with a divorce attorney, divorce financial professional, divorce coach or mental health professional visit www.divorcewithrespectweek.com where you will find a list of participating professionals.
“Seeing the impact divorce has on children, their mental health, and overall relationships with their parents made me want to be a part of another type of way to support families that are going through this,” said Dr. Hasler, a mental health professional.
St. Louis Collaborative Family Law Association is a not-for-profit group of independent divorce professionals.
