While Illinois allows for no-fault divorces, the process is far more complex than citing irreconcilable differences to a family law court. Our divorce law attorneys have experience litigating divorce cases as well as managing collaborative divorce options. A divorce negotiation includes decisions on many serious factors that can affect you both personally and professionally. Some of the areas of divorce our attorneys are particularly adept at navigating include the following:
Illinois operates as an equitable distribution state, which means that assets are supposed to be distributed equitably, but not necessarily equally. There are many factors that can affect the equitable distribution of marital assets, and we have experience with complex assets such as business interests, retirement and pension funds, and more.
We have successfully represented spouses on both sides of the table, paying and receiving spousal support after a marriage. We will ensure that one spouse is not financially devastated after a divorce, and we can also ensure that a paying spouse is not being forced to give too much away in maintenance payments.
Determining where your child will live is often the single most emotional and challenging decision in a divorce. As your attorneys, we will zealously advocate for your right to be with your child and fight for as much time as possible if you are not granted primary custody. We have your best interests at heart when it comes to the custody of your child.
Even with a divorce, the standard of living for your child should not change, and the payment of child support ensures that fact. We will review all relevant factors in a child support order to make sure that you are not paying too much or receiving too little in child support payments and argue for any modifications, if necessary, to ensure that both parents are contributing equally to the child’s care.
Filing for divorce is often cited as the single most stressful event in a person’s life, but you do not have to navigate this process alone.
