01 May Divorce – Brad & Angelina
In a recent interview with GQ Style, legendary actor, producer and all round spunk Brad Pitt http://www.gq.com/story/brad-pitt-gq-style-cover-story has spoken out about his divorce and his observations of litigation which strongly align with our firm’s values and beliefs. “I heard one lawyer say, “No one wins in court—it’s just a matter of who gets hurt worse. And it seems to be true, you spend a year just focused on building a case to prove your point and why you’re right and why they’re wrong, and it’s just an investment in vitriolic hatred. I just refuse. And fortunately, my partner in this agrees. It’s just very, very jarring for the kids, to suddenly have their family ripped apart.” We could not agree with Pitt more. This is why our firm takes a different approach. We encourage separating parties to resolve their disputes in a non-invasive, less expensive, more respectful way and work hard to keep their disputes out of Court. We applaud Brad and Angelina for choosing to settle their differences without resorting to the long, unpredictable, expensive and emotional Court process.
