FAQs

Does it matter which spouse files for divorce first?

While some legal experts believe that filing first can give one party an upper hand in court proceedings, the truth is that the difference between filing first and not is generally pretty minimal.

How much will my divorce cost?

This is always one of the most important questions people can ask and it can also be a difficult question to ask. The truth is that there is no hard and fast rule or set of parameters relating to legal fees in a divorce case because so many things can complicate the fees that an attorney will charge. Your case might or might not involve certain filing fees or other court costs. There can also be the matter of how complex and difficult it will be to resolve your divorce case. You need to speak to a lawyer about the specific concerns of your case to get a better estimate.

How long will a divorce take?

Another very common question concerns the general timing of a case and how long a person can expect their case to take to reach a resolution. The particularities of a case will again determine the answer here, as some people can finalize a divorce within 30 days of filing but others will need several years.

What is the difference between a divorce and a legal separation?

When two parties finalize a divorce, an Illinois court will dissolve the duties and obligations of each party to one another. When two spouses legally separate, they will remain legally married while no longer living together.

Am I allowed to move out of state with our child?

Probably not, but there are certain exceptions in some cases. Illinois law generally forbids parents from moving a considerable distance from another parent, as parents are free to move anywhere in Illinois without court or parental approval. If a person wants to move out of state, however, they will need to get the permission of the court and the other parent. Illinois allows a parent residing in Cook County, DuPage County, Kane County, Lake County, McHenry County, or Will County to move with a child to another residence within Illinois up to 25 miles away from the previous home, a parent living outside of those counties can move with a child to a new residence within Illinois up to 50 miles away from the previous home, or a parent living near the Illinois border can move with a child into a different state up to 25 miles away from their previous home.
