Last updated on April 8, 2021

Special divorce considerations for high-profile, wealthy couples

Last updated on April 8, 2021

Why might ultra-wealthy families in Georgia and elsewhere seek to avail themselves of a so-called “alternative dispute resolution” process rather than proceeding to a courtroom to effect a divorce?
