Safe zones for child custody exchanges
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Domestic Violence on Friday, November 9, 2012. For parents with particularly contentious relationships, drop off and pick up times for custody and visitation exchanges can be quite challenging. Especially in situations where there is the threat — or perceived threat — of domestic violence, parents want to make sure they are safe and so are their children. This is why one county recently started an around-the-clock 24 hour custody exchange zone. The zone is monitored the entire time by the sheriff’s office through video surveillance. This way, if an issue were
Employers affected by divorce too
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC on Monday, November 5, 2012. Divorce, especially those considered rather contentious or ones where children are involved, are often messy. Even in those uncontested divorces, where both spouses are able to easily come to agreements, there is still the emotional and financial toll that divorce takes. This in turn can end up negatively affecting the businesses where these soon-to-be ex-spouses are working. According to several studies, those employees who are going through a divorce are more prone to mistakes, are more likely to project their anger on to colleagues and are just all
Prenuptial agreement validity stands up in court
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Property Division on Thursday, November 1, 2012. A prenuptial agreement is one way to handle property division. Granted, many might not find it the most romantic to negotiate a prenuptial agreement before a marriage, but doing this ahead of time does ensure that in the case of a divorce — especially a high-asset divorce — property would be properly divided. Deion Sanders, who was a former cornerback for the Cowboys and other NFL teams, did the right thing by negotiating a prenuptial agreement 14 years ago when he married model Pilar
Lack of work-life balance can lead to separation, divorce
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Divorce on Friday, October 26, 2012. Many times when a couple realizes their marriage is not going the way either planned, they will decide to separate in order to figure out what it is that they both really want. Often times this separation leads to an official divorce filing. Recently, actor Russell Crowe and his wife Danielle Spencer announced their separation. This came after nine years of marriage. And while it has not been reported as to what led to their decision to separate, one has to wonder if their heavy
Differences between primary and legal custody in Illinois
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Custody on Thursday, October 25, 2012. When it comes to divorce decisions, child custody arrangements are always the most contentious. During this time it can also get particularly confusing as parents try to navigate the world of custody. Parents in Illinois may find themselves wondering, what is the difference between primary and legal custody? Who will be in charge of things like religious upbringing, medical decisions and extracurricular decisions? Of course, there is no one-size approach, but there is a general breakdown of custody terms used in Illinois: Physical custody:
Unpaid child support lands one father behind bars
On behalf of Stange Law Firm, PC posted in Child Support on Friday, October 19, 2012. For many parents — whether they are going through a divorce or just splitting up — determining child support will be part of that process. This means each parent will need to provide proof of their earnings. A judge will then look at not just income, but also the needs of the child. Once the amount the noncustodial parent has to pay is determined, it is very important that parents stay up-to-date on their payments. If not, he or she could end up having
