The decision to obtain a divorce is difficult and emotional.

At the Bennett Law Firm, LLC, we have the knowledge and experience necessary to face all divorce related matters.
Strength in Negotiating and Litigating
If you and your spouse agree on major issues and are willing to work towards a resolution, we will ensure your needs are met in either an uncontested fashion or through the collaborative law process.
If necessary, the attorneys at the Bennett Law Firm, LLC will also not hesitate to litigate on your behalf in a court of law. We approach all issues as if we may have to eventually advocate for you and your family before a judge by building the strongest case possible.
Pursuing Your Best Strategy
In every phase of your divorce, we strive to make you the better prepared party. Both creative and diligent in pursuing favorable outcomes, we will work to ensure you gain:
Experience to Help You Understand the Legal System, Case Law & Court Procedure
Under the stress of divorce, many people make inaccurate assumptions about their rights based on what they have heard from others. However, the attorneys at the Bennett Law Firm, LLC will help you understand how the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act applies to you and can be utilized to your advantage.
Our attorneys have decades of experience aggressively protecting and asserting our clients’ rights regarding such matters as spousal maintenance, division of assets and liabilities, child support, child custody and visitation/parenting time. From tax implications for the high net worth individual to day care for young children, we have the skill and experience to address all complex issues.
The Bennett Law Firm, LLC begins every case with a confidential and informative consultation in which we discuss your unique case, develop legal strategies and address how to best assert your interests. We also provide insights on what you can expect in a trial setting should it occur.
Understanding of Your Financial Situation
Commonly, the reason for a divorce or legal separation is financial. Compounded by the economic downturn, it understandably overwhelms many couples. If you do decide to seek a divorce or legal separation, we will work efficiently to ensure a quick and equitable result. You will be informed not only of the risks and rewards of pursuing different avenues, but also the cost benefit analysis of each. Rest assured that your matter will not get hampered by endless and costly negotiations. However, the Bennett Law Firm, LLC is happy to act as a mediator or your collaborative law attorney if you and your spouse are candidates for alternative dispute resolution.
If you need skilled, tough divorce representation, call (630) 573-8800 or e-mail us to schedule a consultation and benefit from our family law experience in the Chicagoland area.
