Our Waukegan divorce attorneys work closely with each client in order to understand your situation, talk through your goals, identify the key issues, and develop sound strategies for the obstacles or contested issues that might come up along the way. We’re convinced that close attorney-client interaction is essential throughout all stages of a divorce case. That way you can make important decisions with the benefit of a solid understanding of your rights, your responsibilities, and the most likely outcomes if a divorce dispute is headed for court.

Most divorce cases will require the parties to resolve issues related to the following:

• Child Custody and Visitation
• Child Support
• Property Division
• Spousal Support/Maintenance

These are the basics that need to be addressed in any divorce case involving minor children. Cases can be simpler or more complicated depending on any number of factors: high value pension or investment assets, one or both spouses are self-employed or members of a professional partnership, current military service on the part of one or both spouses, the terms of a prenuptial agreement, recent problems with domestic violence or orders of protection or recent bankruptcy.

No matter how simple or complex your divorce case appears, our lawyers can guide you through each stage of the process while working to protect your interests.
