Here’s an overview of our domestic relations services:

Divorce (Contested and Uncontested)

Whether you’re pursuing an uncontested divorce with minimal conflict or navigating a contested divorce with significant disagreements, our attorney will guide you through the process. From filing paperwork to negotiating settlements, we work to protect your interests while minimizing stress.

Legal Separation

If divorce isn’t the right option for you, legal separation can provide clarity and structure for living apart while addressing issues like finances, parenting time, and support. We’ll help you explore this alternative and ensure your rights are protected.

Parenting Time and Parenting Responsibilities

Determining parenting time and parenting responsibility arrangements can be one of the most challenging aspects of family law. Our firm advocates for your parental rights while prioritizing the best interests of your children, creating plans that work for families in the city of Flossmoor, as well as Cook, Will, and Kankakee counties.

Child Support

Illinois law requires both parents to contribute financially to their children’s upbringing. We help clients establish, modify, or enforce child support agreements, ensuring the support amount is fair and appropriate.

Spousal Support and Maintenance

Whether you’re seeking spousal support or being asked to pay it, our firm provides skilled representation. We ensure that all factors are considered, including income disparity, length of the marriage, and financial needs, to achieve a fair outcome.

Prenuptial and Postnuptial Agreements

Protect your assets and plan for the future with a comprehensive prenuptial or postnuptial agreement. We draft and review these agreements to ensure they are enforceable and meet your unique needs.

Property Division and Asset Distribution

Dividing marital assets and debts can be complex, particularly in high-asset divorces. Our attorney ensures equitable division while protecting your financial future, addressing everything from real estate to retirement accounts.

Domestic Violence and Restraining Orders

If you are experiencing domestic violence or need to defend against allegations, our firm provides compassionate and effective legal support. We assist with obtaining or challenging restraining orders in Cook and surrounding County courts.

Paternity Actions

Establishing paternity is essential for securing parental rights and responsibilities. We represent mothers, fathers, and children in paternity cases, ensuring the best interests of the family are upheld.

Adoption

Adoption is a joyful but legally complex process. Whether you’re pursuing a stepparent, or a domestic adoption, our firm will guide you through the requirements to make your family whole.

Modification of Child Support or Parenting Time Orders

Life circumstances change, and your court orders may need to reflect that. We help clients petition for modifications to child support, parenting time, or parenting responsibility agreements based on significant changes in financial or personal situations.

Enforcement of Court Orders

If a court order is not being followed, our firm can assist with enforcement actions. We work to ensure compliance with parenting time, support, or parenting responsibility orders through Cook County courts.

Grandparents’ Rights

Grandparents play an essential role in children’s lives. If you’re seeking parenting responsibility or parenting time rights, we can help you navigate Illinois law to preserve your relationship with your grandchildren.

Termination of Parental Rights

The termination of parental rights is a serious matter, often part of adoption or child welfare cases. We represent clients in these sensitive proceedings, ensuring all legal standards are met.

Relocation/Move-Away Cases

When one parent wishes to move away with a child, it can create complex legal disputes. We help parents present or contest relocation requests, always keeping the child’s best interests in focus.

Mediation and Alternative Dispute Resolution

Mediation can provide a less adversarial approach to resolving family law disputes. Our attorney is experienced in guiding clients through mediation to find mutually agreeable solutions.
