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.
Your attorney’s goal should not be to win at all costs. Rather, it should be to achieve a favorable outcome for you as efficiently as possible. 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 Aurora spousal maintenance attorneys explain the division of marital assets in Illinois divorces. The marital estate may include different types of properties that are subject to division among spouses. Not all assets are counted as marital assets and therefore are not subject to division. The main focus of this article is on what can and cannot be divided.
We also discuss the factors that may play a role in how the Illinois divorce court determines how the assets and marital estate will be divided among the spouses. The length of the marriage, contributions of each spouse, and the economic circumstances of each spouse may all be factors in the court's decision making process.
In this video, our Aurora alimony attorneys explain Illinois spousal maintenance law. We provide an extensive look into the many factors that are considered when awarding spousal maintenance in a divorce.

In this article, our Aurora spousal maintenance lawyers explain marital settlement agreements in Illinois divorce.
Marital settlement agreements are contracts made between the parties to a divorce. The contracts are made to resolve some or all of the issues in a divorce. These may include spousal maintenance, division of assets and liabilities, parenting time and child support. The courts will often honor the marital agreements presented, however two exceptions can be made. The courts have the right to modify terms if they feel they need to change the terms in order to best protect the interest of any children involved or if the courts find the agreement to be “unconscionable”.
