Value Added Divorce/Paternity - VADP - is a strategic approach that allows you to define what your life and - if applicable - the lives of your children will look like after the litigation concludes. It is a process in which each step is measured against your vision of the short term objectives and the long term goals of the litigation and beyond.
What is VISION?
It is not goals. Goals are measurable and specific. But families are not made like cars.
It is not dreams. Dreams are vague and rely on someone else to complete them.
VISION is what you see when you think of your family. It is the articulation of your dreams, your goals, and your passions. It is how you see your family developing and growing. It is the unique roles each person in the family fulfilled.
Most clients never define their VISION for divorce litigation. All they think is “I want as much as I can get” or “I want to make sure the other gets nothing they want.” VISION puts this in context of now and 5 or 10 years from now. This is as important for your relationship with your children as it is for your finances now and down the road.
VISION is important because decisions are made consistent with the vision. it prevents you from drifting aimlessly. It helps you respond to attacks and attempts by the other side to raise unrelated allegations or issues. It defines the goals but is more than the goals themselves.
In divorce litigation, VISION is important because it keeps lawyer fees in line with your goals. It helps you and your lawyer decide what experts are necessary. It focuses the discovery process. It prevents you from overreacting or under reacting to attacks by the other side.
VISION is defined by you with your lawyer’s assistance. It turns the litigation into a true partnership and gives your lawyer better insight into making decisions and giving appropriate advice.
