Divorce and what to expect
In Illinois there are two types of divorce, contested and uncontested. Uncontested divorces are those in which the parties have an agreement or the parties have no real estate, assets or children. It is possible to still have a uncontested divorce with children, assets and real estate, but the parties have an agreement to how everything will be separated. These can often be done start to Finished in roughly 30 days. Contested matters are what people often think of when they hear “divorce”. Contested matters require the court to make a decision for the parties though litigation. This type of divorce can be overwhelming and stressful even with an experienced lawyer by your side.
Whether you are pursuing an uncontested divorce or are going through a contested divorce, having an attorney to advocate for your interests can be incredibly beneficial. Pursuing a divorce can be an emotional and sometimes contentious legal affair. Without competent legal representation, you could walk away from your divorce with an unfair deal.
