OUR FAMILY IN TWO HOMES

Resources for Innovative
Divorce Professionals

Our Story

Our Family in Two Homes was created by Jacinta Gallant, an experienced collaborative family lawyer who decided to completely stop litigating after 20 years in practice. Jacinta wanted more meaningful engagement with her clients so she could enjoy going to work again. She wanted families to divorce more peacefully and productively, and for collaborative professionals to stand out as innovators who care about families. She wanted to work with the values that led her to law school in the first place – to help people and make the world a better place.

So, Jacinta created Our Family in Two Homes to use with her own clients. It completely changed her practice. And now, it is being used by lawyers and mediators around the world!

Our Story

Our Family in Two Homes was created by Jacinta Gallant, a collaborative family lawyer and mediator who decided to completely stop litigating after 20 years in practice. Jacinta wanted more meaningful and productive engagement with her clients and she wanted to enjoy going to work again. She found a way to work with the values that led her to law school in the first place – to help people and make the world a better place.

When Jacinta created Our Family in Two Homes to use with her own clients, it truly transformed her practice. And now, these resources are being used by lawyers and mediators around the world – who are helping more families make a peaceful transition to two homes!

Our Mission

As divorce professionals, we’ve seen first-hand the impact that conflict and court processes have on families.

Our mission is to help families thrive – not just survive – through life’s transitions, and to create resources to enhance the work of the important professionals who support them. We want innovative and caring divorce professionals to stand out in their communities so that more families get the help they need.

… And we want to change the world for the better (of course).

Why the Workbooks Work

The Theory Behind It

Our resources were developed based on the Insight Approach to Conflict, which helps people in conflict understand and address the threats that get in the way of productive dialogue, opening up their pathways to learning something new while bringing about transformative change in their patterns of interaction.

Self-Reflection and Curiosity

Our resources encourage client self-reflection with carefully-crafted, open questions that prepare clients for receptive engagement with their lawyer or mediator, and their co-parent. The focus is on cultivating a sense of curiosity and discovery at a time when these are often lost, which prepares both parties for dialogue rather than debate.

Autonomy and Respect

Our guiding principle is “Never Cut What Can Be Untied” (Joseph Joubert 1790). When trust and connection are challenged, our clients face a tough decision: “Do I cut and run, or do I commit to the work of untying this painful knot?”. Our resources respect our clients’ ability to do the hard – but important – work to make a healthy transition to two homes, and are created with the belief that with the right support, people can be empowered to make the best decisions for their new kind of family.

Benefits

Our Family in Two Homes helps both clients and divorce professionals thrive. Here’s how:

So, when they’re working with you, they’re ready to talk about what matters and are open to creative problem-solving.

Innovation

 

Family law consumer demand is shifting. Clients want excellent service that they can’t get from an algorithm or a google search. They want to feel respected and supported at a difficult time. Our Family in Two Homes helps you address the greater expectations of clients, so that you can stand out as an innovative divorce professional who cares about families.

Community

 

We’re constantly learning from and inspired by the innovative professionals who are using our resources around the world, so we created a private online network – the Two Homes Professional Community.

What our community is saying about Two Homes

BRIAN URBAN

(Cleveland, USA)

 

“Our Family in Two Homes resources allow my clients the opportunity to reflect independently on the topics which will likely be of greatest importance to them. That independent work in turn permits them to be more prepared for their discussions with me in advance of group meetings and, ultimately, allows them to be more effective communicators and decision-makers in crafting solutions which best fit their needs and the needs of their families.”

KRISTEN BOLDT

(Iowa, USA)

 

“Clients going through divorce are facing a huge life change. What I love about the workbook is that it gives clients a tangible tool to help them move out of fear based thinking into a more centered mindset so that they are ready to intentionally design the new normal for their family.”

KATE HAAKONSEN

(Connecticut, USA)

 

“These exercises help clients bring what may be unconscious about their values, goals and communication styles to the front of mind. That helps them and me understand what is happening in their negotiations. Plus, the legal information in the workbooks saves us a lot of time explaining and is there for them to refer back to because they’ll never remember it all just from hearing it.”

JENNIFER REID

(Nova Scotia, CANADA)

 

“The resource package provides an opportunity for self-reflection to the clients in a way that helps to facilitate dialogue and communication throughout the process, both between clients and collaborative professionals. There is also an element of structure and grounding which creates a helpful framework.”

JONETTA DOROGI-KAPUSTA

(Ohio, USA)

 

“This resource provides clients with the opportunity to prepare for meetings thoughtfully and fully engage in productive interest-based conversations. In addition, the resource promotes self-awareness and encourages responsibility for positive change.”

KATHY CAMPBELL

(California , USA)

 

“Among many other reasons: It meets a need I couldn’t meet by being available when the clients feel the need is most urgent: worrying on lonely Saturday night at home. The workbook provides context, answers, and relieves stress in the moment and gets them through to Monday when they can call me to ask their more detailed questions.”

SIU LIN GOH

(Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia)

 

“As a collaborative practitioner, I am excited to bring this resource workbook to Malaysia and to harness this tool in my family law practice. My dream is to assist families and children to achieve positive outcomes, to rise like a phoenix from the ashes.”

NANCI SMITH

(Vermont, USA)

 

“As a divorce lawyer and mediator, I love this resource. I appreciate that the clients have the opportunity to reflect and gain insight into themselves, without the pressure of being on the spot with me. Clients also love this resources, as it provides them time to reflect and get real about themselves and their partners, in a safe, non-judgmental way.”

LOUISE LIVESAY

(Minnesota, USA)

 

“Clients are finding that the Resource Package model helps them go through the process more effectively.
They are better prepared for the discussion and the difference in how they look at things and process info or conflict is not judged on a basis of good or bad, but it neutralizes judgment and helps professionals better assist both clients because we understand their differences.”

CARMEN AJA RUIZ

(Madrid, Spain)

 

“Clients have the time and structure to actually think about their future.
In divorce cases, clients are very vulnerable, and it is hard to design their new future in such a emotional moment. Collaborative Law helps them to listen, talk and reach agreements. 2 homes resources help them to make good decisions. They have information, recommendations, and specially reflection.
I think Innovation for Lawyers work is the “revolution” Collaborative community was waiting for.”
