Are child support costs fixed or variable in Illinois?
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Support on Tuesday, February 3, 2015. For those seeking to get a firm handle on what child support is all about in Illinois (the duties, offsets, exemptions, judicial considerations, time limits, enforcement mechanisms for noncompliance and so forth), the metaphor of a swamp might be useful. Swamps are murky. What might seem firm footing suddenly becomes slippery. What seems fixed and obvious going forward can suddenly change materially based on suddenly altered circumstances. That is fundamentally true with child support matters as well. Things can seem to be perpetually in
Yes, you should think about tax considerations as a single parent
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Wednesday, January 28, 2015. It’s almost too precious to say at this time of the year that tax-related issues can be, well, taxing for a filer. It’s true, though, and virtually all filers have dealt with one or more headaches during the process of marshalling relevant documents each year, collecting applicable tax forms, wading through instructions and then wondering whether they got the bottom line right. Those same concerns can hold true for a filer in Illinois, Missouri and everywhere else across the country even in instances when

Preserving the child-parent relationship should be a priority
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Friday, December 19, 2014. A parent plays a unique and irreplaceable role in the life of their child. At the Stange Law Firm, PC, we want to see this relationship preserved after a child’s parents separate or divorce. Sadly, though, this is not always the viewpoint of all parents, and many do find themselves entrenched in a custody battle. This is where we step in to provide guidance. If you are a parent who is going to be fighting for custody, it helps to know the basics. In
What is a child care right of first refusal?
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Wednesday, December 17, 2014. It is common for situations to arise in which a divorced parent, during their assigned parenting time, needs child care for their kids. In such situations, the divorced parent’s ex may be interested in being the one who provides such child care. Depending on the terms of the custody order/agreement regarding their kids, a divorced parent’s ex may be the first person the divorced parent is required to ask when they are looking for someone to provide child care for the kids. Under Illinois
What goes into determining the best interest of the child?
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Sunday, November 16, 2014. As our readers may know, child custody determinations are among the most important decisions that are made in divorce proceedings. Couples who cannot agree on a custody arrangement have to get a court involved, which will then bring up the issue of what arrangement is in the best interests of the child. That term, best interests of the child, is the guiding factor for judges in making child custody determinations. But exactly how are these decisions made? What factors go into determining what is
