Collaborative Divorce Professional Credentialing

Note: CDT CREDENTIALING DEADLINE EXTENDED TO SEPT 28TH DUE TO HURRICANE HARVEY

Due the devastating effects of Hurricane Harvey on our community, Collaborative Divorce Texas is extending the deadline for members to submit their applications for credentialing to Thursday, September 28, 2017. This deadline extension applies to all members across the state. CDT will accept credentialing applications that are either (1) hand-delivered to the Collaborative Divorce Texas office by 5:00 p.m. on September 28, 2017 or (2) postmarked no later than September 28, 2017. Applications should be mailed or hand-delivered (Monday-Thursday 8:30 am to 5:00 pm and Friday 8:30 am to noon) to 5420 LBJ Freeway, Suite 626, Dallas, TX 75240 (NOTE: the sign on the suite will read Hance Law Group). If you have any questions regarding this application deadline extension, please contact our Executive Director, Ronda Robinson by email or by phone at 972-386-0158. Our thoughts and prayers are with all our members, their clients, family and friends effected by Hurricane Harvey.
