At Krentz, Salfisberg & Swanson Haggard P.C., we understand that navigating a divorce can be an emotional and stressful experience. Our team of experienced family law attorneys is dedicated to providing compassionate legal counsel, ensuring that you have the support you need throughout the entire process. An uncontested divorce offers a unique opportunity for couples to separate amicably and efficiently.

What is an Uncontested Divorce?
An uncontested divorce is a legal process where both parties agree on all key issues, including the division of marital assets, child custody, and support arrangements. This approach minimizes conflict and allows you to focus on moving forward with your life.

Advantages of Uncontested Divorce
Choosing an uncontested divorce can provide several benefits:

  • Cost-Effective: With fewer legal disputes, the overall costs of the divorce process are significantly lower.
  • Faster Resolution: Uncontested divorces can often be finalized more quickly than contested ones, allowing you to achieve closure and move forward.
  • Less Stressful: Without drawn-out court battles and negotiations, couples can work together to find mutually beneficial solutions.

This approach can be less adversarial and more cost-effective than traditional litigation. Our attorneys are experienced in guiding clients through mediation to achieve amicable resolutions.

We assist clients in negotiating and formalizing parenting plans that reflect these considerations.
    Can grandparents seek visitation rights in Illinois?
    Yes, under certain circumstances, grandparents may petition for visitation rights, especially if it serves the child’s best interests and if there has been an unreasonable denial of visitation. We can help evaluate your situation and guide you through the legal process.
    What steps are involved in the adoption process?
    The adoption process involves several legal steps, including filing a petition, background checks, home studies, and court hearings. Our firm provides guidance through each stage to ensure compliance with Illinois adoption laws and to facilitate a smooth process.
    How is spousal support determined in Illinois?
    Spousal support, or maintenance, is determined based on factors such as the length of the marriage, each spouse’s income and needs, and the standard of living established during the marriage. We work to ensure that any maintenance arrangements are fair and in accordance with Illinois law.
    Do you assist with prenuptial and postnuptial agreements?
    Yes, we assist clients in drafting and reviewing prenuptial and postnuptial agreements to protect their assets and clarify financial expectations. These agreements can provide peace of mind and help prevent future disputes.
