We have attempted to give you an brief outline of the issues that most people are interested in when they first contact us when faced with a divorce, family law, dissolution, custody or support matter. A case is analyzed on an individual basis and different judges will give different awards when faced with similar facts. You should not make a decision based on any issue outlined in this site without contacting us. The outline of Illinois law is provided to give you a better understanding of your rights so you can more intelligently make decisions on the issues that concern you and to make an inform decision if you wish to hire us as your divorce, family or dissolution attorney.
