Steele Divorce and Family Law
Resolving Divorce and Family Issues
Whether you are going through a divorce or have another family legal issue, contacting a skilled attorney can put you on the path toward a fair resolution.
At the Steele Law Firm in Chicago, Illinois, divorce and family law are our primary focus. Contact us to schedule a free initial consultation about any of the following family law issues:
• Child custody: Child custody and visitation in Illinois are based on the best interests of the child, which generally include having both parents involved, to the extent that they are responsible parents.
• Child support: Illinois child support is based on a formula taking into account the income of the non-custodial parent. Child support must be paid even if the parent who owes it is denied visitation.
• Asset division: Division of marital property under Illinois' equitable distribution doctrine is complicated. A skilled divorce lawyer can help you find creative solutions and get evidence to support your desired outcome.
• Spousal maintenance: Maintenance — also known as alimony or spousal support — can be awarded to make the division of assets fairer and/or to provide for a spouse who has come to rely on the other.
• Modification and enforcement: Most aspects of the divorce decree can be modified when relevant circumstances change. There are also several means for enforcing the divorce court's orders.
• Collaborative divorce and mediation: Alternatives to traditional divorce are increasingly popular among people who would like to avoid litigation but have issues they need to work out.
• Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements: A prenuptial or postnuptial agreement can provide predictability and stability when you have current or expected future assets that you want to protect.
• Adoption: Whether you are interested in formalizing your relationship with a child already in your care or bringing a new child into your household, the Steele Law Firm can help.
