For those of you that are somewhat familiar with divorce law, you are probably aware of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act of 1977. This is the major legislation that not only covers divorce in Illinois, but all of the supplemental issues involved as well. Well, it may be getting a major overhaul soon. The Illinois Family Law Study Committee is proposing the changes, and if approved, it could significantly transform the way cases are currently handled in the areas of child custody, maintenance, child support, and other related matters. For a consultation on your case, please contact out experienced divorce attorneys.

IS IT TRUE MY SPOUSE AND I HAVE TO LIVE APART BEFORE FILING FOR DIVORCE?
According to Illinois statute, couple obtaining a divorce on the grounds of irreconcilable differences must live separate and apart for at least two years prior to finalizing the divorce. However, like a lot requirements in family law, this period can be waived by the parties if both spouses would like to proceed with the divorce without living apart. Contact one of our divorce attorneys today to see how you can avoid this requirement.
