Support And Seasoned Counsel Throughout Your Divorce

The act of ending a marriage or a civil union is commonly referred to as a divorce, or a dissolution of marriage. This process can be affected by a variety of factors, including the level of acrimony, the complexity involved in valuing certain assets such as closely held business interests, issues relating to children, mental health and substance abuse.

Regardless of these variables, a divorce in Illinois is typically started by the filing of a Petition for Dissolution of Marriage followed by the filing of an appearance and a response by the other party. Once a case is filed, there are only two ways to resolve the case: through a contested bench trial or through a negotiated agreement on all issues. Early in the case, it is important to gather information, both through the informal exchange of information between the lawyers and through the formal court process including requests for production of documents, interrogatories, subpoenas and depositions.
