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

How to handle sharing a child with a toxic parent
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Thursday, August 31, 2017. There are many reasons why an Illinois parent might consider a former spouse to be toxic. Previous instances of abuse or neglecting the children may make it easy to label someone toxic. However, this label may also be applied by someone who is upset or scared about the prospect of getting a divorce. In the event that a former spouse or partner truly was toxic, there are specific steps to take to make co-parenting easier. First, it is important for a parent to remember
Research supports shared custody arrangements
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Thursday, August 31, 2017. When Illinois parents of young children get a divorce, some might assume there will be an arrangement in which the mother gets custody of the children and the father has some visitation time. While mothers get custody in around 80 percent of cases in the United States, this is slowly changing. Shared parenting, already the norm in countries such as Sweden, is an arrangement in which the child spends roughly equal time with each parent. Missouri and Kentucky are among the states that have
DNA testing as a proof in paternity.
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Support on Saturday, August 19, 2017. Maryville, Illinois paternity attorneys are often asked whether DNA testing is necessary for a child support order. The answer often depends on whether the man from who child support is sought is challenging paternity. Because of its accuracy and its non-intrusive testing method, testing has become popular in paternity cases. But it is not always necessary. For example, if an alleged father voluntarily acknowledges paternity pursuant to state law, testing is not required. In other situations, a man can be presumed to be the

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Support on Saturday, August 12, 2017. Pop culture buffs in Illinois might have already heard that Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian ended their relationship after their daughter was born in late 2016. The two never married although they were engaged until they called off the relationship.
