Home/Lincolnwood Parenting Time Lawyer

At Corri Fetman & Associates, Ltd., we know that time spent with your child plays an important role in bonding and nurturing. But when parenting time (formerly known as custody) is split between parents, maintaining a close relationship with your child can become a challenge. As experienced Lincolnwood parenting time lawyers, the team at Corri Fetman & Associates, Ltd. will work to defend your rights in negotiations and court proceedings pertaining to child time-sharing agreements. We will provide aggressive, professional legal representation to protect the rights of both you and your child in these situations.

Considerations in Lincolnwood Parenting Time Proceedings

Under the Illinois Compiled Statutes (750 ILCS 5/600), the court favors joint parenting time arrangements as a way of keeping both parents active and engaged in their child’s life.

Factors the court considers in these cases include:

  • The role each parent has previously played in providing for the child;
  • The current relationship between each parent, the child, and the other parties involved.  
  • The parent’s willingness to cooperate and adhere to any court orders issued in the case.
  • The presence of past or current issues related to domestic violence, drug or alcohol abuse, or other behaviors which could put the child’s safety at risk.

How Our Lincolnwood Parenting Time Attorneys Help You

In Lincolnwood and other areas of Cook County, parents going through a divorce or involved in child time sharing dispute are required to submit a parenting plan to the court. This outlines parental rights and responsibilities and may form the basis for future orders in the case.

At the Corri Fetman & Associates, Ltd., our Lincolnwood parenting time lawyers can help you in negotiating the best possible plan for you and your child. Areas to address include:   

  • Legal decision-making responsibility in issues pertaining to the child;

  • Plans regarding school breaks, holidays, birthdays, and other special occasions;
