Wage garnishment usually occurs because of child support
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Support on Friday, October 6, 2017. Illinois residents might be surprised to learn that one in 14 workers in America are subject to wage garnishment. This data was gathered by the ADP Research Institute as part of a study released on Sept. 27. The study used the anonymous pay data of 12 million U.S. workers from 2016. Four types of wage garnishment were looked at. These types are child support, bankruptcy, tax levies and other general garnishments that can occur. Child support was the most common type of wage garnishment.
Air Force has highest divorce rate of the branches
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Military Divorce on Friday, September 29, 2017. Military life in Illinois carries high stress circumstances at times. Deployments, change of station moves and high operational tempo can all put pressure on a marriage and make divorce more likely. Of the branches of service, the Air Force has had the highest rates of divorce since 2011. According to the Defense Manpower Data Center, enlisted airmen had a divorce rate of 4.3 percent as of 2013. The same data indicate that the divorce rate was lower for officers, at 1.5 percent, and highest
Working out custody issues
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Friday, September 22, 2017. Illinois parents who are divorcing are often concerned about what will happen to their children. Knowing that it is in the best interests of the child or children to have a strong relationship with both parents, divorcing spouses will often work diligently to set aside their differences and develop a custody plan that works for everyone involved. Still, emotions can run high at this difficult time. In many cases, parents can negotiate child custody issues between themselves and develop a workable parenting plan. However,
Consequences of nonpayment of child support
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Support on Tuesday, September 19, 2017. Noncustodial parents in Illinois are often ordered by the state court to pay child support. However, sometimes that parent will fail to pay said support to the other parent, which can result in several different consequences. Time in jail is an option if the amount of the support is significant or the parent simply refuses to pay. If the amount isn’t particularly high or there are circumstances preventing the support from getting paid when ordered, such as the paying parent’s loss of a job,
Military divorce rates differ for men and women
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Military Divorce on Tuesday, September 12, 2017. Families represent a critical support system for military personnel in Illinois, but not all marriages withstand the extra pressures of serving the country. The Pentagon tracks divorce rates among all service members and separates figures for men and women. In 2016, divorces among men in the military remained stable at 2.6 percent. Divorces among servicewomen, however, rose in 2016 to 6.6 percent from 6.2 percent in 2015. The Defense Manpower Data Center collects the data about military divorces. The rate is calculated every fiscal
