A common view of divorce is one of animosity. Two people duking it out in bare-knuckled conflict to win. While this can sometimes be the case, it does not need to be. In fact, a bit of civility injected into the process can often help with better outcomes and a better relationship post-divorce.
Join us for a discussion on civility in divorce with Tanya Harvey from Ward Family Law.
Other Panelists
- Joyce Marter - Author, Blogger and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor
