Lily endorses the collaborative divorce model because it generally provides a more satisfying and healing process for families going through divorce and legal separation. Lily’s diverse educational background (including degrees in art history and accounting), life experience (as the matriarch of a large and blended family), and maturity, help shape and inform the perspective she brings to her clientele. Clients engaged in collaborative divorce have more opportunity for self-empowerment as the process encourages a dynamic, thoughtful, and creative approach to decision making and settlement.
