Season 4 Episode 14 #From Adversarial to Aligned: The One Couple, One Lawyer Approach
When couples separate, the default assumption is that each person needs their own lawyer. But what if there was another way?
In this episode, I speak with Antony Ball, a collaborative family solicitor and accredited mediator with more than 25years of experience helping families navigate divorce, separation, and complex financial and children matters.
We explore the “one couple, one lawyer”model, also known as the Resolution Together approach — where a single lawyer works with both partners to guide them through separation in a constructive, transparent, and cost-effective way.
This conversation invites us to rethink a fundamental assumption: that separation must be a legal battle.
Instead, it asks whether a more aligned,family-focused process might lead to better outcomes for everyone involved.
