We believe your attorney should not speak in legalese

Finding an attorney who is a “real person” can be difficult. Many attorneys surround themselves almost exclusively with other attorneys and are accustomed to speaking in ivory tower legalese.  You should be able to connect with your attorney on a personal level, and he or she should speak to you in plain language that you can understand.  You will be working very closely with this person on issues that are very important to you. It is important that he or she be down-to-earth and someone that you connect with.

We believe your attorney should be accessible

The most common complaint that clients have of their attorneys is that the attorney is unreachable, does not communicate with them regularly, or does not promptly return your calls.  Your attorney should reach out to you about your case regularly and respond within 24 hours to calls and e-mails.  An open line of communication between you and your attorney is essential to building trust.

Learn how we service your area through our Remote Location Approach.

We believe your attorney should be realistic with you about costs and outcomes

Your attorney’s goal should not be to win at all costs.  Rather, it should be to achieve a favorable outcome for you as efficiently as possible.  It is important that your attorney set realistic expectations at the outset as to the costs you should expect, the concerns that the attorney has about the outcome of your case, and the length of time that you should expect your case to take.

Regardless of the nature of your case, we have an experienced attorney who will focus on your individual needs. Our team of attorneys works closely together, bringing each of their different fields of experience to bear in order to optimize our client care.

About Family Law Attorney Palatine:

Understanding Your Legal Journey

Family law encompasses a broad range of legal issues, from divorce to child custody, each carrying its unique set of challenges and emotional strains. Our Palatine family law attorneys are deeply familiar with these issues, providing a comprehensive approach to each case with sensitivity and understanding.

Navigating Divorce and Separation: Divorce can bring about significant life changes and uncertainties, especially when it involves complex asset division or child-related concerns. Here's how our team assists you:

  • Asset Protection: Fear of losing significant financial assets is a common concern in divorces, particularly high-net-worth cases. We work diligently to safeguard your investments and properties that you entered into the marriage with, ensuring a fair distribution.
  • Child Custody and Parenting Time: The welfare of your children is paramount. Our attorneys strive to secure custody arrangements that honor your children’s best interests while maximizing your parenting time. This delicate balance requires not just legal acumen but a compassionate understanding of your family's specific needs.

Success Story: A Client-Centered Approach: Imagine the case of Sarah, a mother of two from Palatine, who faced the daunting prospect of losing primary custody to her ex-husband. Sarah was overwhelmed, fearing the impact on her children and their future. Our attorneys stepped in to mediate, focusing on collaborative techniques to address the concerns of both parents. Through mediation, we not only preserved Sarah’s custodial rights but also improved the co-parenting relationship, minimizing future conflicts and ensuring the children's stability.

Post-Divorce Modifications: Life doesn’t stand still after a divorce decree is issued. Changes in jobs, relocation, or shifts in a child's needs may necessitate adjustments to custody or support orders. We assist clients in:

  • Requesting modifications to reflect new circumstances.
  • Enforcing existing orders to ensure ongoing compliance.
  • Addressing discontinuation of orders when they no longer serve their intended purpose.

List of Areas We Cover:

  • Alimony and spousal support
  • Division of property and debts
  • Child support and custody
  • Parental rights and responsibilities
  • Modifications and enforcement of orders

Mediation and Conflict Resolution: We believe in the power of mediation to resolve disputes efficiently. By fostering a cooperative environment, we often help clients discover common ground on critical issues such as spousal support and property division, which might otherwise escalate to prolonged court battles.

In any family law challenge, from navigating the initial uncertainties of a contested divorce to managing post-divorce modifications, our team of family law attorneys in Palatine stands ready to support you.
