How Illinois Family Law Works
Illinois family law focuses on fairness, cooperation, and the best interests of children. Even in complex cases, the law aims to help families reach equitable, lasting outcomes.
Attorney Kari Cornelison helps clients understand key aspects of Illinois family law, including:
Parental Responsibilities and Parenting Time
Determining how parents share time and decision-making for their children.
Child Support
Calculated under Illinois’ “income shares” model, based on both parents’ incomes.
Spousal Maintenance (Alimony)
Determined by state guidelines and individual circumstances.
Property Division
Marital property and debts are divided equitably, not necessarily equally.
Post-Decree Modifications
Court orders can be updated if family needs or financial situations change.
Understanding these principles helps clients move through the process with confidence and control.
