How Illinois Family Law Works

Illinois family law emphasizes fairness, cooperation, and protecting the best interests of children. Attorney Kari Cornelison guides clients through each stage of the process, ensuring they understand their rights and responsibilities.

Key areas of Illinois family law include:

icon

Parental Responsibilities and Parenting Time

Determining how parents will share time and decision-making.

icon

Child Support

Based on both parents’ incomes under Illinois’ income-shares model.

icon

Spousal Maintenance (Alimony)

Determined by state guidelines and statutory factors.

Property Division

Marital property is divided equitably, not necessarily equally.
