Christi M.

Kevin's firm handled setting up my will and trust recently. They took something that seemed intimidating and made it easy to understand. I've also referred a couple clients to Kevin - he's trustworthy, approachable and very fairly priced.

Helping Palatine Families Through Divorce

Divorce is way more than just filling out some paperwork. It's also about figuring out who gets to be the one in charge of the kids, how much one person has to pay the other to get by, what's going to happen to the family home and all the rest of the stuff you two own together - including debts and retirement accounts. At O’Flaherty Law, our divorce lawyers in Palatine sit down with clients to get a clear idea of what they're looking for, explain what the divorce process in Illinois looks like, and figure out a game plan that makes sense for what they're going through.

Uncontested, Contested, and Living Apart in Illinois

Some divorces are pretty straightforward - you get both spouses on the same page and you're good to go. Others are a real fight - people don't see eye to eye on the big stuff like property, who gets the kids, how much support one person owes the other, and all that jazz. And then there's the option to just sort of...live apart - Illinois lets you do that too. When you're living apart but still married, you can even sort out things like support and who gets to see the kids, but you are still married. It's not a divorce, but it can be a way to take some of the stress out of being apart without getting a divorce.

Working Out a Divorce without Harming Your Family

Divorce doesn't have to be this huge, public spectacle. More and more Illinois couples are looking for ways to get through it that don't involve lawyers and the courtroom - ways that let them keep things private and get the outcome they want. When that's possible, O’Flaherty Law helps clients hammer out practical agreements that work for everyone. And when it's not possible to settle things amicably, our team is ready to go to bat for you in court.
