Update: Father’s employee perks factored into child support
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Support on Saturday, October 19, 2013. Back in June we posted about a father who did not want his employee perks to be included as income when calculating how much he owes in child support. This request came after the man asked for a reduction in how much he was already paying in child support. He based his modification request around the fact that his salary was cut in half due to a decrease in enrollment in the college he is the president of. The case ended up going all
How divorced parents handle financial aid applications
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Tuesday, October 1, 2013. When it comes to applying for financial aid, divorced parents often struggle when it comes to who should fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid, commonly referred to as FASFA. Should it be the custodial parent? Does who pays child support play a role in who should file? What about a stepparent? Should there information be included? Filling out FASFA was recently the topic of a CBS article. The topic came up after a divorced parent emailed Lynn O’Shaughnessy from CBS MoneyWatch.
Adoptive parents given custody in baby Veronica case
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Friday, September 27, 2013. Anyone who is familiar with the baby Veronica child custody case is aware the case has gone on for years. Raising questions about federal laws, tribal sovereignty and jurisdiction, the child custody case pulled on the heartstrings of parents all across the country. Recently though, the case may have reached the end with the adoptive parents given custody of the 4-year-old. In looking at this case — in the most simplest of terms — baby Veronica was adopted by a couple. Her biological father
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
