Brian Michael Urban

There is an old saying which states, “The definition of a fair divorce settlement is that both parties walk away unhappy.” After 31 years of marriage, raising three children and running a successful company, I did not want this antiquated interpretation of divorce to define our family. The concept ...of “collaborative divorce” which encompassed negotiations, compromise and creative problem solving with legal representation was certainly the answer for our family. Brian Urban personified these altruistic concepts and helped us reach a “win-win” resolution to our divorce avoiding painful and damaging litigation. Brian Urban was instrumental in our collaborative divorce in many ways including the following; - He was an exceptional communicator and a fountainhead of creative problem resolution options. - He put me at ease, kept me informed and prepared me for every step of the process. - His perspective and advice were key to helping me focus on “the big picture” involving legal issues and what was important to me, thus avoiding inconsequential emotional topics. - Brian’s knowledge and experience in Divorce Law was instrumental in keeping the process on point and moving forward in a timely, cost effective manner. - Brian protected ALL my interests, including the company, which is a source of income for my ex-wife, children and myself. He made sure BOTH parties understood that a healthy negotiating environment would keep the company intact and benefit everyone. - After being involved in many, many negotiations over the years I can tell you HE IS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST AT WHAT HE DOES! I am proud to have Brian Urban as a representative because he treated all parties with respect and fairness. But I want to be clear, even though it was a “collaborative divorce”, he ALWAYS had my best interest. My ex-wife and I amicably talk on a daily basis and our children are very happy we embraced the process of a collaborative divorce.
