Drug abuse and modifications can play roles in custody sagas
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Support on Friday, September 20, 2013. People should certainly not believe everything they read in the magazines and tabloids. However, it is important to note that when it comes to family law issues for Illinois fathers, there is something that can sometimes be learned from these stories by more reading in between the lines. Take for example the recent story involving actor Charlie Sheen and his ex-wife Brooke Mueller. The news is that even though the kids were taken away from Mueller in May — for her reported drug overdose
Illinois judge rules against company in child support case
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Support on Wednesday, September 18, 2013. A child support case involving Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois has been going on for years. And while it is a rather extreme case, it does go to show the general confusion that can stem from unpaid child support. In this case, a husband and wife divorced in 2008 after 20 years of marriage. The couple had three children together and the husband was ordered to pay his ex-wife $930 a week in child support, alimony and medical insurance premiums. However, the ex-wife
Census reports increase in number of men living alone
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Friday, August 30, 2013. When a couple splits up, it is rather common for each to start living on their own. Some men may realize they even like living on their own more so than living with a partner. According to new Census data, there has been an increase in the number of American men living on their own, alone. The divorce rate increase between 1970 and 1980 may be part of the reason for this increase. According to the data, in 1970, 23 percent of men in
Co-parenting issues can arise after a divorce
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Wednesday, August 28, 2013. While some couples may be able to keep their cool — or even get along — during a divorce, when it comes to child custody decisions no two parents should ever just assume that they are always going to continue to agree on everything when it comes to raising their children. Even if the divorce went smoothly, issues can still arise in the future. Take for example the recent case involving musician Jack White and ex-wife Karen Elson. This is a couple that threw
Illinois parents who owe child support lose gambling winnings
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Support on Monday, August 19, 2013. There is a $3.1 billion child support backlog in Illinois. In order to try and collect for those mothers and fathers who are owed money, a new law was passed that will make it legal to take gambling winnings from parents who are behind on child support in the state. Going forward, when someone wins more than $1,200 at a casino or racetrack in Illinois, their name will be checked against a database. If it comes up that this parent owes child support, their
Modification petition dismissed, Usher retains custody of 2 sons
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Saturday, August 17, 2013. While we tend to think of the glamorous lifestyles of the rich and famous, it is important to keep in mind that many of these celebrities also end up facing the same worries and fears that many of us do when it comes to family law issues. Take for example the recent emergency hearing that was called by Usher’s ex-wife, Tameka Foster Raymond. She was seeking a child custody modification after her son became trapped underwater while in the care of his aunt. According
