Chicago Divorce Lawyer

Attorney Representing Clients in Divorce and Family Law Cases Throughout Illinois

When people get married, they rarely plan for the end of that marriage, but the fact remains that nearly 50% of marriages end in divorce. The breakdown of a relationship is often unavoidable, but even if divorce is inevitable, it does not have to leave your life in ruins. During a divorce, you have rights that should be protected, and that means that you need a legal advocate on your side who understands the law and can argue for your interests in court. By taking the right approach and securing the services of a knowledgeable attorney, you can maintain financial security after your divorce and provide a stable, loving home for your children.
