The Importance of Clear Boundaries Between Divorce Coaches and Lawyers

In this conversation, we explore one of the most important and misunderstood dynamics in divorce: the relationship between lawyers, divorce coaches, and clients.

When roles are unclear or professionals are working in silos, clients can receive conflicting guidance, unrealistic expectations, or even non-legal advice that puts their case at risk. We discuss real-world examples of how this happens, and how it can be avoided.

Topics covered include:

  • Why divorce coaches must never give legal advice
  • How misalignment between lawyers and coaches undermines clients
  • The risks of coaches working without direct communication with counsel
  • Why joint meetings can dramatically improve outcomes
  • The impact of Google, AI tools, and well-meaning friends on legal strategy
  • How misinformation creates confusion, anxiety, and unnecessary conflict

This video is for:

  • People going through separation or divorce
  • Divorce coaches seeking ethical, effective practice
  • Lawyers working with coached clients
  • Anyone navigating divorce in the “information age”

The key takeaway: clear boundaries, collaboration, and communication protect clients and leads to better outcomes.
