The military and child support
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Military Divorce on Monday, November 20, 2017. Sometimes getting child support from a parent can be difficult. Illinois residents who are owed child support by someone who is in the military should be aware that the regulations and processes for calculating and obtaining child support differs from those that govern non-military parents. The process for filing an order of child support against a parent in the military begins with first determining how much income the servicemember earns. This requires an examination of the attorney general tax chart, the military pay chart
The lingering effects of domestic violence in divorce cases
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Domestic Violence on Tuesday, November 14, 2017. Emotions often run high during a divorce, and the first year of separation can be particularly difficult and dangerous for estranged spouses who have been the victims of domestic violence and abuse. This is the period when decisions are made about important matters like child custody and visitation, and the lingering effects of family violence can have a profound impact on how abused victims approach these issues according to research from the Department of Human Development and Family Studies at the University of Illinois.
Preparation, evidence can help fathers seek full custody
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Friday, November 3, 2017. Fathers in Illinois going through a divorce are often worried about being ripped away from their children. This is intensified even more in situations of abuse, addiction and other contexts in which fathers want to achieve sole, rather than joint or shared, custody of their children. Many fathers may worry about a potential bias toward mothers in family court or preconceived ideas about a man’s role in child-rearing. However, fathers who seek child custody have a good record of achieving their rights in courts.
Divorced fathers and co-parenting
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Wednesday, November 1, 2017. When couples with children get divorced, it can sometimes be difficult for fathers to remain as actively involved with their children as they were before the divorce. However, there are certain steps fathers can take to make sure that they are involved in their children’s lives. Preparation is key when having to submit proposals to the court regarding custody and visitation. It is important to take into account the needs of the children and the work times for both parents. One should keep in
Handling custody matters when parents aren’t getting divorced
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Monday, October 30, 2017. Illinois parents may not need to be divorced in order to experience issues with child custody or visitation. In some cases, grandparents or other family members may try to get custody or visitation rights enforced. When parents are unmarried, the mother is generally awarded sole physical custody of the children. This may change only if the father takes action. Like in most child custody or visitation cases, those involving unmarried parents may be resolved either through a private settlement or court action. If a
Child custody challenges resulting from a parent’s disability
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Friday, October 27, 2017. Some Illinois parents may fear that they may lose custody of their children due to a disability. These fears are not unfounded as courts have continued to interfere with the rights of disabled parents to raise their children. One woman faced an unexpected court battle in 2009 after her former boyfriend filed for custody of the former couple’s 10-week-old son. The former boyfriend claimed that the woman, a veteran who was a quadriplegic, was not fit to care for the infant. The boy’s mother
