  • How is parental responsibility allocated in Illinois family law cases?

    In Illinois, parental responsibility involves decision-making authority over areas like healthcare, education, extracurricular activities, and religion. These decisions may be shared by both parents or allocated primarily to one parent, depending on the best interests of the child. Courts typically examine each family’s unique circumstances before determining how responsibility should be allocated. If you have questions about establishing or modifying parental responsibilities, let us guide you through the process. Reach out today for knowledgeable support.

  • What factors affect the division of marital property during a divorce?

    Division of marital property in Illinois considers various factors such as the length of the marriage, each spouse’s contributions, the value of assets, and each party’s future financial prospects. The goal is a fair, though not always equal, distribution of property. Non-marital property, such as inheritances or gifts, is usually excluded. If you are concerned about how your assets may be divided in a divorce, consult with our experienced team for practical advice and effective representation.

  • How is child support determined in Illinois?

    Child support in Illinois is calculated based on both parents’ incomes and the number of children, as well as other factors like parenting time and certain expenses. The person paying support is called the obligor, and the person receiving it is the obligee. Courts strive to ensure that children’s needs are met after a family separation. If you have questions about child support calculations or enforcement, contact us to get the clarity and support you need.

  • What is an Order of Protection and who can request one?

    An Order of Protection provides legal protection for individuals who have experienced domestic violence or harassment. Under the Illinois Domestic Violence Act, these orders can last for up to two years and are designed to keep you and your loved ones safe. If you need to obtain or defend against an Order of Protection, our firm has the experience to help you navigate the process. Do not hesitate to reach out for help when your safety is at stake.
