Divorce

Divorce is stressful, and it can be traumatic for the individuals involved. Couples going through a divorce are faced with the uncertainty of their financial future, homes, possessions, and their children’s future.

At Strategic Divorce^TM, our objective is to help you through your divorce in a respectful and non-adversarial way. It is essential to have a divorce attorney who is skilled at negotiating settlements and trying cases in court on your behalf. Divorce can be messy, but with the right divorce attorney at your side, many complications can be overcome.

Everyone in a divorce setting deserves to be heard, and we’ll make sure that you understand your options during your divorce. Your particular circumstances require special care and attention in order to meet your specific goals and needs.

Working with the right divorce attorney will ease your stress and make the process much more bearable. It can be challenging to accurately predict what the outcome will be in a divorce case, but at Strategic Divorce^TM in Lake Bluff, IL, our attorneys will guide you in the right direction.

Post-Decree/Post-Divorce Disputes

Under appropriate circumstances, individuals may seek a modification of custody or parenting time, child support, maintenance, and other financial rights and obligations. Whether you would like to modify a previous arrangement or defend against the other party’s modifications, our team is ready to assist you.

Changes in your or your former partner’s personal, family, or financial circumstances may warrant a modification to your marriage dissolution or parenting agreement. Enforcement actions may become necessary if a party fails to pay child support or maintenance, does not follow the settlement agreement requirements, or interferes with the other parent’s visitation.

The attorneys at Strategic Divorce^TM are highly adept at handling enforcement and modification issues in post-decree disputes. No matter what type of modifications are being sought, our firm can help you reach your goals effectively and efficiently.

Parentage & Paternity

An increasing number of couples are having children without entering into marriage. In these cases, the court may need to determine the biological father of the child in order to grant parental rights and responsibilities.

The rights and responsibilities of unmarried parents and their children are governed by the Illinois Parentage Act. Under Illinois law, the same rules regarding custody, parental responsibilities, and child support apply both to divorcing couples and unmarried parents.

At Strategic Divorce^TM, our family law attorneys are well-versed in handling paternity and parentage, as well as child support and custody issues. Our primary consideration in these matters is how to best serve the interests of our clients and, most importantly, their children.

Orders Of Protection

Our family law attorneys have extensive experience in dealing with domestic violence issues and obtaining orders of protection and restraining orders for our clients and their children. If you or your children are the victims of verbal, emotional, or physical abuse, you can obtain legal protection through an order of protection or restraining order.

As a victim of abuse, you may feel helpless, confused, and afraid, but there are resources available to help you. Our attorneys will connect you with additional means of assistance, including mental health professionals and domestic violence support groups to provide you with maximum care and advocacy throughout this difficult process.

Strategic Divorce^TM has also defended individuals accused of abuse or domestic violence. If you need to file an order of protection, or you are fighting allegations of domestic violence, reach out to our firm to see how we can best assist you.
