At the Women’s Divorce & Family Law Group, we represent clients in many different types of legal issues arising out of Warrenville divorces. Examples of the kinds of divorce matters we routinely handle include:
Most legal matters pertaining to divorce in Warrenville are governed by the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act (IMDMA). The IMDMA clarifies that Illinois is a no-fault state for purposes of divorce, which means neither party can or must prove that the other is at fault in order to get divorced. Instead, the “no fault” method for getting divorced in Illinois is showing that irreconcilable differences are responsible for the divorce filing.
Divorces in Warrenville can be uncontested or contested. An uncontested divorce is one in which both parties agree about all of the terms of the divorce, while a contested divorce is one in which a single issue or more is in dispute. Contested divorces require a judge to make a ruling on the issue or issues in dispute.
Marital property in Warrenville is divided based on equitable distribution. Since Illinois is an equitable distribution state, this means the court will look at many different factors in order to reach a decision about how to divide marital assets and debts in a manner that is equitable (or fair) to both of the spouses involved.
Illinois law has a formula that courts use for most spousal maintenance awards. Before a court can use the formula to determine the duration and amount of maintenance, however, the party seeking maintenance must ask the court to award it. Then, the court will look at a variety of factors to determine if maintenance is appropriate in the particular case.
Many divorces also involve minor children from the marriage. In these cases, the court will also allocate parental responsibilities—previously known as child custody—as part of the divorce case.
