Protecting Your Interests in an Illinois Divorce

Divorce in Illinois in 2015 is not what it used to be. Today’s partnerships are dissolved with amicable outcomes and well planned financial commitments to any children involved. Women are finding greater economic power and more opportunity for self-sufficiency than in previous decades. Men are engaging in dynamic roles as caregivers and taking on more responsibility in actively raising their children than ever before. Father’s rights are as much a part of a normal divorce proceeding as a mother’s rights, and custody is based on the best interests of the child, upholding a gender neutral law.

As divorce attorneys at Denise Kuzniewski’s Law Offices, not only do we interpret these new changes, we work with our clients to help them clearly state their divorce objectives. We take the time to learn about your family and your individual needs, in order to offer you better legal counsel and advice for the options available to you. No two families are identical and we believe that informed clients are better prepared for the journey ahead.

We understand that a journey that includes divorce is not an end, but a new beginning for all affected family members. No matter how complicated it might be, our team understands your unique situation and will help to guide you through a difficult transition.

Talk to us to discuss your needs today. We can help with:

• Child support, visitation, and custody arrangements
• Financial issues, property and debt resolutions as well as spousal alimony, if appropriate
• Settlements and terms of agreement, negotiations and mediation as required for resolution.
• Court trials: in case the parties cannot come to an agreement, an independent third party – the judge will hear relevant testimony, consider the evidence, apply and interpret current Illinois law to enter a judgement. Trials may take additional time, and even longer if either party requests an appeal.
