Call Us Now!
Finding an attorney who is a “real person” can be difficult. Many attorneys surround themselves almost exclusively with other attorneys and are accustomed to speaking in ivory tower legalese. You should be able to connect with your attorney on a personal level, and he or she should speak to you in plain language that you can understand. You will be working very closely with this person on issues that are very important to you. It is important that he or she be down-to-earth and someone that you connect with.
The most common complaint that clients have of their attorneys is that the attorney is unreachable, does not communicate with them regularly, or does not promptly return your calls. Your attorney should reach out to you about your case regularly and respond within 24 hours to calls and e-mails. An open line of communication between you and your attorney is essential to building trust.

It is important that your attorney set realistic expectations at the outset as to the costs you should expect, the concerns that the attorney has about the outcome of your case, and the length of time that you should expect your case to take.
Regardless of the nature of your case, we have an experienced attorney who will focus on your individual needs. Our team of attorneys works closely together, bringing each of their different fields of experience to bear in order to optimize our client care.

In this article, our Illinois family law attorneys explain recent changes to Illinois child support law.
On July 1,2017, child support guidelines changed and now child support is based on an “income shares” model. Based on the relative incomes of the parents this may cause some parents to pay more and some to pay less in child support than under the previous law.
However, the new law does treat child support differently in “shared parenting” situations. Shared parenting means that each parent has 146 overnights with the child a year. Time spent with the child will factor into much child support the non-custodial parent is responsible for. The more time the less child support obligations will be, time spent does not become a factor however until the 146 overnights requirement is met.
