  1. Illinois Divorce Laws The Law Office of Deanna J. Bowen provides clients with clear and reliable guidance on navigating Illinois divorce laws. If you're considering divorce in Illinois, understanding the legal process and your rights is essential to protect your future and make informed decisions. This firm is committed to helping clients through each phase of the divorce journey with knowledge and clarity. When pursuing a divorce in Illinois, both parties must meet certain residency requirements. Either you or your spouse must have lived in Illinois for at least 90 days before filing. The state recognizes both fault and no-fault grounds, but most divorces proceed under irreconcilable

  2. differences, meaning the marriage has broken down beyond repair. The Law Office of Deanna J. Bowen assists clients in understanding which grounds apply and how they may affect the outcome. Illinois divorce laws also govern how marital property is divided. Illinois is an “equitable distribution” state, meaning property is divided fairly, though not necessarily equally. The court considers factors such as each spouse’s income, contributions to the marriage, and future earning potential. With the help of The Law Office of Deanna J. Bowen, clients gain a clearer picture of what

  3. equitable distribution may look like in their situation. Child custody and support are also determined under Illinois divorce laws. Courts prioritise the best interests of the child when deciding parenting time and responsibilities. Another key element of divorce in Illinois is spousal maintenance, or alimony. The court may award maintenance based on the duration of the marriage, financial needs, and each party’s ability to support themselves. The Law Office of Deanna J. Bowen offers guidance on whether spousal

  4. maintenance may be a factor and how it is determined under state law. The legal procedures outlined in Illinois divorce laws can be overwhelming without the right support. From filing the initial petition to finalising a settlement or court order, The Law Office of Deanna J. Bowen provides comprehensive legal assistance tailored to the needs of individuals going through divorce.
