Affordable Family Law Services in Sugar Grove, IL

Sometimes you need a family law attorney to help you solidify your parental rights or your children's quality of life. At other times, you may be facing a more serious issue in which the safety of you or your children is at stake. We provide legal guidance and representation for a range of issues, including:

• Paternity: For unmarried parents in Illinois, establishing legal paternity is often crucial. For mothers, establishing the father's paternity ensures that he is obligated to contribute to child support. For fathers, establishing paternity can solidify your parental rights to custody and parenting time and allow you to include your children in a health insurance policy. We can guide you through the process of a voluntary acknowledgment of paternity, a DNA test, or a court hearing to establish paternity, depending on what your situation requires.
• Legal separation: Many Illinois couples choose to pursue a legal separation, in which they live in different residences while remaining legally married, either before or instead of divorce. Perhaps you are not quite ready to commit to the irreversible decision of divorce, or maybe you want to stay legally married for financial or religious reasons. We can help you initiate a legal separation and pursue child support, spousal support, and a fair division of property during the separation period. We can also assist you with the decision to move forward with a divorce if you ultimately decide that is the best option.
• Domestic abuse and orders of protection: If you, your children, or other family members are at risk of violence or abuse from another member of the household, we can help you obtain an order of protection that keeps you safe from harm. With the assistance of law enforcement, a protection order can take effect as soon as the day it is requested, and it can temporarily require the accused person to stay away and give you exclusive possession of your residence until the court issues a final ruling.
• Adoption and foster care: When you are looking to expand your family or establish legal parenthood, we can help you with the legal procedures involved in adoptions of all kinds, including step-parent and related adoptions, agency adoptions, foster care adoptions, and independent adoptions.
• Custody and parenting time: For parents who have never been married and those who are pursuing a divorce, we can help with child-related issues including the determination of parental responsibilities and parenting time, with a focus on your parental rights and the best interests of your children.
