A respected financial advisor suggested I look into collaborative divorce instead of mediation; in fact she very strongly recommended it.

In collaborative divorce a team of professionals is bound by their agreement to get the best result for both parties. They provide information about what you're entitled to ask for, where a mediator cannot.
