Frequently Asked Questions

What Family Law Cases Do You Handle?

We primarily represent family law clients in matters including divorce, child custody (now known as parenting time), child support, and spousal support (formerly known as alimony). We are particularly proud of our skill in complex divorces involving business interests or significant assets.

In What North Shore Areas Do You Practice?

We practice in Cook, Lake, Will, Kane, and DuPage counties. This includes the suburban Chicago communities of Evanston, Northbrook, Deerfield, Glenview, Northfield, Glencoe, Highland Park, Kenilworth, Lake Bluff, Lake Forest, Wilmette, and Winnetka.

How Fast Can I Get Divorced?

If you meet the residency criteria, Illinois doesn’t have a waiting period for uncontested divorces. But, the time it takes to finalize a divorce varies based on factors such as: whether or not you have children, how many assets are involved, and the level of agreement on critical issues.

We always work to achieve the most time- and cost-efficient solution.

I Don’t Work Outside the Home. How Can I Afford an Attorney?

Illinois law has a method to “level the playing field” for spouses who do not have access to marital assets that could pay for an attorney. We can assist you in determining whether you can benefit.
