Campbell Family Law helps clients divorce differently because they deserve better choices in the outcome. We only work in the out-of-court processes of mediation, collaborative divorce, and collaborative mediation to provide clients with the flexibility they need and want without the spectacle or tragedy that a litigated divorce often is.
Campbell Family Law prepares and empower clients to live their new liberated life to the fullest. Collaborative Divorce is a legal process enabling couples who have decided to separate or end their marriage to work with their lawyers and other professionals to avoid the uncertain outcome of court decisions and to achieve a settlement that best meets the specific needs of both parties and their children.

San Francisco Bay Attorney Kathy Campbell has many years of experience successfully assisting clients in family law. She understands the value inherent in the team and cooperative approaches. Having seen the damage a difficult divorce can bring, she chooses to mediate and participate in the collaborative divorce process more frequently than the traditional methods.
Because there are so many different issues that can come up during a divorce there are four different processes available to get you through a divorce. They are the Kitchen Table, Litigation, Mediation, and Collaborative Divorce, each with its own pros and cons. California Divorce attorney Kathy Campbell focuses her practice on Mediation, Collaborative Mediation and Collaborative Divorce.
At the outset I provide clients with a workbook containing basic legal information about California divorce law. After couples review it, on their own or together, we meet again to plan how and through which process I can best help you. Draft documents confirming the agreements you reached. Work through the court so you can get divorced without either spouse ever entering a courtroom;.
The collaborative divorce means that the divorce professionals commit to stay out of court. The professional team, configured by and for each family individual, all agree in writing to a disqualification clause that prevents the professionals from continuing in any court-related process for the couple.
Collaborative Mediation is a hybrid of two other out-of-court processes: Collaborative Divorce and Mediation. It can be a good middle ground for those struggling to decide between a Collaborative Divorce or a Mediated Divorce. In Collaborative Mediation families work with a smaller team, the members of which, commit to step down from the case if the family cannot finalize the divorce in Collaborative Mediation.

Kathy Campbell is passionate about families. She stood by my side through a very long and contentious divorce; constantly trying to elevate the ordeal to civil. I felt stunned and wounded at every turn. Kathy was my shield, the best defender. She prepared me as best as she could for court proceedings and helped me understand the law. Kathy consistently and naturally conducts herself with respect and a high moral code. She always treated me as a priority and showed concern about my wellbeing and the wellbeing of my children. I have the utmost respect for Kathy and would recommend her for anyone

Kathy Campbell was a tremendous help in my divorce. We went through the collaborative divorce process and I can't say enough how engaged, kind, fair, and emotionally aware of the situation she was during the entire process. She was a great advocate for my interests but always stayed true the collaborative process. I highly recommend her.

I cannot recommend Kathy highly enough. She was incredibly knowledgable, professional, and responsive, three things you want in your family law attorney. In addition, she has a strong understanding of some of the challenges during divorce, whether it be around child development, substance abuse issues, or mental health challenges. She is well respected in her field and therefore has strong working relationships with others that go a long way in effectively expediting various steps during the divorce process. She also has efficient and responsive office staff. The last thing you want during a divorce

Kathy Campbell is a valued colleague. I am impressed by her legal knowledge and expertise, but more importantly with her emotional intelligence, her integrity, and her skill in the area of conflict resolution. I have seen how she handles highly complex family law conflicts and always learn from her approach. She is widely respected in the legal community. I can highly recommend her as a Collaborative Attorney or Mediatior.

Hiring Kathy Campbell and engaging in a Collaborative Divorce was the best choice we made while making the painful decision to dissolve our marriage and change our family structure. I had a spectacular team of coaches in my corner, with Kathy leading the way. Our whole family is now healing, healthy, and creating a new life together in a different way than we originally planned. Thank you very much, Kathy.
