Fathers’ rights, part 2: More men are purposefully stepping forward

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Wednesday, June 25, 2014. As has been often remarked upon in media articles focusing on family law over the past few years, important aspects surrounding fathers’ involvement in their kids’ lives following divorce have undergone a material evolution. It takes only a cursory look at family-related television shows from bygone decades to note the change. In former times, it seemed commonplace — an absolute normalcy — for a dad to essentially be invisible around the house. Fathers worked outside the home, earning the income that supported their families.

High-asset divorce: Get your ducks in a row

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Property Division on Thursday, June 12, 2014. As we have noted in past select posts, there is an obvious and compelling reason why cookie-cutter divorce kits and advice routinely sabotage rather than promote optimal dissolution outcomes. That reason is this: Every divorce is unique, with singular considerations that cannot be accounted for through generic forms and advice. Child-related issues might dominate in one case. Perhaps it was domestic violence that served as an explosive catalyst in ending a marriage. Maybe an affair precipitated a divorce filing. Or, as is so often

Researchers: link between heavy social media use and divorce

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Divorce on Monday, June 9, 2014. Many of our readers have likely already read or heard about a perceived link between the heavy use of social media sites by one or both partners in a marriage and resulting storm clouds in that union. New research that appeared recently in the online publication Computers in Human Behavior presents findings that confirm a strong correlation between regular use of social network sites and marital problems. Specifically, as noted by researcher and professor James E. Katz, “people’s growing enthrallment with social media” has configured

Although unique, billionaire’s divorce broadly instructive

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Property Division on Thursday, June 5, 2014. We’ll concede at the outset of today’s blog post that most people — OK, virtually all people — will likely have a problem identifying with the story of Dmitry Rybolovlev’s divorce. The reason: A court in Switzerland recently ordered the Russian businessman to hand over more than $4.5 billion — yes, you read that correctly — in cash to his former wife Elena as partial settlement of their unquestionably high-asset divorce. And that is not all. The divorce settlement also mandated the turning over

It’s official: Illinois now recognizes same-sex marriages

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Tuesday, June 3, 2014. As we noted in a recent blog post, Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn inked a legislative bill late last year allowing same-sex couples to marry and have the same marital rights as their heterosexual counterparts (please see our post entry dated May 27, 2014). That day of long-awaited equality for many Illinois state residents arrived this past Sunday, with gay marriage becoming legal across the state on that day. As we pointed out in our above-cited post, the law’s enforcement now means that same-sex couples

Collaborative divorce: not for all, but a good mechanism for some

On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Divorce on Thursday, May 29, 2014. Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) techniques might not work as well as traditional litigation in every case, but it’s nice to know they’re available as options. For persons unfamiliar with the language, ADR essentially encompasses legal processes that stand in contrast to traditionally litigated matters. In family law, what readily comes to the forefront are divorce mediation and collaborative divorce. The emphasis on these resolution processes is more on civility than on adversarialism as soon-to-be exes try to reach agreement on important divorce matters. Parties rather
