Does Illinois make divorcing couples wait?
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Property Division on Sunday, March 13, 2016. Family law is largely left to each individual state to create and amend. Though a lot of things, such as no-fault divorce, are now available in every state, each state has its own procedure and requirements for getting divorced there. It is important that you don’t make a procedural mistake, or else your divorce might get significantly and unnecessarily delayed. For example, most states have some sort of residency requirement before a couple can get divorced there. In Illinois, state law requires at least
Can experiencing divorce make children stronger?
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Friday, March 11, 2016. It is common for unhappily married people to hold off on getting divorced because of their children. They worry that the trauma of their parents splitting up would harm the kids emotionally, leading to years of psychological damage that will require hours and hours of therapy to work through. While divorce can be tough for the children, in most cases it is still the right decision in the long run. Living in a house with constant arguments, resentment and tension is not a healthy
Missouri Supreme Court soliciting comments about child support
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Support on Friday, March 4, 2016. Missourians who have an opinion about the state’s child support guidelines — and we are sure there are many — will have a chance to give their opinion to the state Supreme Court. According to the Saint Louis American, the Court’s Family Court Committee is conducting a review of Missouri’s child support guidelines. Specifically, the committee is taking a look at the “assumptions, information and methodology” used to create the guidelines family law courts use to determine how much noncustodial parents must pay in
Man caught committing bigamy with Missouri woman
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Property Division on Wednesday, March 2, 2016. When you want to marry someone, make sure you are not currently married to someone else. Bigamy is against the law in Missouri, so you could find yourself facing criminal charges for trying it. It is also cause to void the second marriage, which could leave your second spouse with no right to pursue property division, spousal support or child support. A Missouri man has been charged with misdemeanor bigamy after his wife of 29 years, who lives in Oregon, found out her husband
5 things you need to take care of after divorce
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Property Division on Friday, February 26, 2016. Getting the final divorce decree might be a relief, a sad moment or somewhere in between. No matter what your emotional reaction will be, keep in mind that it is not the final step in severing ties to your former wife or husband. Depending on how much you and your ex planned for your future together before filing for divorce, you could have up to five things you need to take steps to change — as soon as possible after your divorce is official.
When adoptive parents ‘re-home’ their kids, child safety is at risk
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Wednesday, February 17, 2016. Most of the time, an adopted child becomes a part of his or her new family permanently — but not always. Occasionally, parents change their minds and seek to hand off the child to someone else, a move known as “re-homing.” This may seem like shocking, heartless behavior to some. How could anyone go through the process of adopting a child, only to decide they don’t want the kid anymore, as if the girl or boy was a used car? And many parents who
