Top 3 Qualities to Look for in Your Attorney

Cost-Effective

When we started our firm in the midst of the recession, we learned to survive in a lean environment and pass the savings on to our clients.  As the economy has improved, we have not changed our philosophy.  We are hungry to grow our client base, and so we have intentionally set our rates below what the market will bear.  Our mission is to make each client walk away feeling that they got more value than they paid for.  This is easier to do when we make our prices affordable.

Client-Focused

The secret to our success as a firm is incredibly simple: we build a personal relationship with each of our clients and treat them with the respect that they deserve.  We pride ourselves on our open lines of communication, frequent check-ins with our clients, and our accessibility.  We are here to help you in any way we can, often leveraging our network of resources to assist you with non-legal issues that you may be having.  We are your one-stop problem-solver and trusted adviser.  All attorneys say that they provide excellent client service, but, unlike other attorneys, we practice what we preach.  We make sure every client walks away happy . . . period.

Comprehensive

We are your community law firm.  Our business is built on long-term relationships with our clients.  Our clients have the luxury of building trust over time with one team of attorneys, rather than having to find a new attorney for each different type of matter that arises over the course of their lives.  No one attorney can be an expert at everything.  That is why we have worked hard to assemble a team of attorneys with extensive experience in different areas of expertise.  Our attorneys work together closely to bring our collective experience to bear on any issue that may arise for our clients.

Great at What We Do

Since our business comes entirely from referrals and community involvement, our reputation for quality legal work is our greatest asset . . . and it is extremely important to us.  Each of our attorneys is truly experienced in his or her practice areas, with the highest personal standards of excellence.  We are proud of our reputation in the community, and we did not achieve it by accident.  Our reputation for excellence comes from hard work, continuing education, and an above-and-beyond approach to our clients’ cases.

Illinois Child Support Guidelines

In this article, our Saint Charles child support attorneys discuss recent changes to Illinois child support laws that took effect on July 1, 2017.  We explain the new way in which child support amounts are calculated.  Illinois will now follow many other states in converting to the “income shares model” in order to calculate child support.  Under this model, child support will be calculated using both parents’ income and cost of living.  The number of children involved is also taken into account  in child support calculations.

‍Current Illinois child support law awards child support based on only the non-custodial parents income.  The new law will now consider both parent's incomes in an "income shares" model, which may cause some parents' child support amounts to increase, while others' amounts will decrease.

Illinois Child Support & College Expenses

In this article, our Saint Charles child support lawyers explain how child support works with respect to college expenses. Courts are required to order the non-custodial parent to pay child support until the child reaches the age of 18 or graduates high school. Although not mandatory, courts have discretion to award child support for adult children.  This is often seen in the case of post high school educational expenses. In these cases the party seeking child support must demonstrate that child support is appropriate.
