Understanding the Divorce Process
Understanding the divorce process in Chicago is crucial for anyone considering this significant step. Here’s a general overview of what you can expect:
Initial Consultation – At your initial consultation with our Chicago divorce law firm, we will discuss your situation, outline your options, and develop a strategy tailored to your needs. This meeting sets the groundwork for the rest of the process.
Filing the Petition – Once you decide to proceed, we will help you file the necessary divorce petition in the appropriate court. This document outlines your grounds for divorce and any immediate requests regarding asset division, child custody, or support.
Discovery Phase – During the discovery phase, both parties exchange relevant information and documents. This step is vital for uncovering all financial details and ensuring a fair division of assets.
Negotiation and Settlement – Many divorces are settled outside of court through negotiation or mediation. Attorney Corri Fetman is a skilled negotiator who works tirelessly to reach a fair settlement that protects your interests. In cases where mediation is appropriate, we also offer collaborative law services to facilitate amicable agreements.
Trial and Litigation – If a settlement cannot be reached, the case may proceed to trial. Our experienced litigators will advocate for you in court, presenting a compelling case to achieve the best possible result.
Post-Decree Modifications – Life circumstances can change, necessitating modifications to divorce decrees. Whether it’s modification of custody or child support, we continue to provide support long after the divorce is finalized.
