It is not just a powerful tool; it is a revolutionary way to use divorce as the starting point to a better life. Holistic divorce is not only the family’s finances. It incorporates the well-being of the parties\, their children and extended families\, their emotional process and their future happiness. “The Divorce Professional’s Guide to Holistic Divorce” will show professionals in non-adversarial and traditional divorce settings how to help clients achieve better outcomes in their divorce proceedings and – more importantly – their post-divorce lives. \n\n\n\nWe will address 5 critical junctures\, and how to utilize them to improve the clients’ experience: Pre-engagement; Beginning of each session; Heated moments; End of each individual session; and at the End of the matter. Participants will have an opportunity to practice addressing and turning around clients’ outdated fears and irrelevant concerns. I will also discuss my 5-step process for helping clients understand the true uses and purposes of divorce in their lives. \n\n\n\nThe presentation includes a brief discussion of ABA Model Ethics Rules 1.3\, 1.6\, 1.7 and 1.9 and how they apply in this work.Key objectives and takeaways: \n\n\n\n\nIdentifying and controlling critical junctures to deepen the holistic experience of divorce\n\n\n\n\n\nHelping clients understand the purpose and meaning of divorce\n\n\n\n\n\nImproving client satisfaction by giving them better outcomes in and beyond divorce\n\n\n\n\n\nUsing and modeling the 5-step process in and past divorce\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker Bio:“Divorce is a transition\, not an obituary.” This conviction has guided Attorney Sharon Oberst DeFala’s practice since 1992.
