Comprehensive Legal Support

Our firm handles all aspects of divorce, from mediation and settlement negotiations to trial representation. We ensure that no detail is overlooked and that your case is handled with the utmost care and professionalism. Here’s how we can assist you:

1. Divorce Process and Legal Requirements: We guide you through the entire divorce process, starting with filing a Petition for Dissolution of Marriage. Illinois is a no-fault state, requiring proof of “irreconcilable differences.” Our attorneys will help you meet all jurisdictional requirements and navigate contested or uncontested divorces efficiently.
2. Child Custody and Support: Determining child custody and support is often the most sensitive part of a divorce. We prioritize your children’s welfare, working to establish fair and sustainable parenting plans and support arrangements. Our team is adept at addressing both decision-making responsibilities and parenting time.
3. Spousal Support: Spousal support, or maintenance, is not guaranteed but is often crucial in high-net-worth divorces. We ensure that your rights and obligations are clearly defined and protected, whether you are seeking support or required to provide it.
4. Property Division: Equitable distribution of marital property can be complex, especially with high-value assets. Our attorneys have the financial acumen to manage the division of real estate, retirement accounts, business interests, and other valuable assets, ensuring a fair outcome.

Addressing Your Concerns

How long does a typical case take? The duration of a divorce case is dependent on the complexity and whether the divorce is contested. We strive to resolve cases efficiently while still ensuring the best possible outcomes for our clients.

What are the legal requirements for filing for divorce in Illinois? At least one spouse must have lived in Illinois for 90 days before filing. We will help you navigate all necessary legal steps to ensure compliance with state laws.

What factors are taken into consideration when determining child custody or spousal support? Courts consider various factors, including each parent’s involvement, financial stability, and the children’s best interests. Our attorneys will help you present a compelling case to protect your rights.
