Lottery winner pays back $29,000 in child support
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Support on Saturday, April 6, 2013. Winning the lottery and walking away a multimillionaire would be anyone’s dream come true. For those working long and grueling hours just to get by, suddenly having millions of dollars would understandably be utterly life-changing. For those owing money, it would give them the chance to pay those debts back. Recently this happened to a business owner with five children between the ages of 5 and 23. After winning the $338 million Powerball jackpot, the father appeared in court to settle the $29,000 he
Tax season and divorce: Tips for Illinois residents
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Wednesday, March 27, 2013. With tax season in full swing, those Illinois residents who are either newly divorced or are going through a divorce right now may be wondering just how to file. Should they file separately or jointly? What about if their divorce went through on Jan. 2, 2013? The first question that needs to be answered is whether a person is still married or single. This will depend on if the divorce is pending or if it has gone through. Basically, if the divorce went through
Online dating information being used in divorce court hearings
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Monday, March 25, 2013. When setting up an online dating profile many Illinois residents may be tempted to lie. Not necessarily to deceive anyone, but to increase their chances of getting dates. However, while the practice of being dishonest from the very start is certainly questionable, for those who are going through a divorce, lying on an online dating profile can end up being used against them in court. According to the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers, 59 percent have seen an increase in evidence from online dating
What are acceptable punishments for unpaid child support?
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Support on Friday, March 22, 2013. A judge’s recent ruling in a child support case where a father is being forced to wear a sign stating he is behind on his child support payments is causing quite the commotion. Some say the punishment serves the father right, while others say it is unfair, humiliating and does not solve the problem. Looking at this case, over the past two years the father has fallen behind $13,000 on his child support payments. Since he was court-ordered to make these payments, he ended
Should police run criminal checks on domestic abuse victims?
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Domestic Violence on Wednesday, March 20, 2013. As a society, we tend to focus on domestic violence from the standpoint of a wife or girlfriend being abused. And while there are certainly plenty of cases where in abusive relationships this is the case, it is also important to keep in mind that abuse can go both ways and that there are plenty of husbands and boyfriends who are in abusive relationships. In all of these abuse situations, the person abused should know there are strict laws in Illinois meant to protect
Jury does not believe allegations; father awarded custody
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Domestic Violence on Thursday, March 14, 2013. If you are an Illinois father getting ready to go through a divorce, be prepared for the fact that your ex-wife may attempt to make up completely preposterous stories in order to get the upper hand in court. This can be anything from abuse allegations to having a history with drugs. All of these allegations, if not properly defended against, can have an impact on child custody and visitation. Take for example the recent child custody ruling between NFL Hall of Famer Deion Sanders
