How Illinois Family Law Works

Illinois family law aims to achieve fairness and protect the best interests of children. Attorney Kari Cornelison helps clients understand their rights, responsibilities, and the procedures that shape the outcome of their cases.

Key areas of Illinois family law include:

icon

Parental Responsibilities and Parenting Time

Creating parenting plans that promote stability and cooperation.

icon

Child Support

Calculated using Illinois’ “income shares” model, based on both parents’ incomes.

icon

Spousal Maintenance (Alimony)

Determined by state guidelines and case-specific factors.

icon

Property Division

Marital assets and debts are divided equitably, not necessarily equally.

icon

Post-Decree Modifications

Existing orders may be changed when circumstances evolve.

Having an experienced attorney by your side ensures you understand these laws and how they apply to your family’s situation.
