If you and your spouse desire to obtain a divorce without the cost, stress, and hostility of litigation, but still need assistance agreeing upon the division of assets, support, custody, and/or parenting time, then a Collaborative Divorce may be the ideal solution.
After several years of practicing family law via the traditional divorce model whereby the parties looked to the Court to litigate and resolve all impasses to settlement, attorney Bradford L. Bennett became a trained and certified Collaborative Law attorney to provide many of his divorce clients a better option.Traditional divorces are frequently inefficient, drawn-out, public, and expensive.

Nearly 40% of the births in the U.S. today take place outside of marriage. And with unmarried births increasingly becoming the norm, the Illinois Parentage Act seeks to address the rights of parents and children. No one is excited about the prospect of retaining counsel for parentage cases, i.e. parenting time or decision-making disputes between unmarried parents.
Whether you have a current child support order in place or have been proceeding by way of an agreement outside of the court system, child support payments (or lack thereof) can directly affect the welfare of your children. While it often comes down to a cost-benefit analysis when matters of child support are involved, you need attorneys that will be straightforward with you regarding an equitable solution on such matters.
While the vast majority of divorced parties do not have any further contact with the courts, situations do arise when your ex-spouse (in divorce matters) or other parent of your child (in parentage cases) refuses to comply with the final judgment from your original litigation.
In addition, circumstances may change after your final judgment where alterations need to be made to the final order, relating to the parenting time or decision-making regarding your children or purely financial matters.In these circumstances you need the guidance of Bennett Law to walk you through the process of post-decree litigation and modifications - it is not a process that you should undertake on your own.

I reached out to Brad when I figured that my previous attorney was goofing around with my case and no progress was made after months expect my wallet was draining. My ex and opposing counsel was coming up all kind of false narratives to influence the court, keeping my son away from me, mentally torturing me in all possible ways and dragging the case to no end. I needed someone to understand the situation, listen to me and save me out of the deep hole I was in, get a

When my ex had told me he wanted a divorce, I knew immediately I wanted a lawyer to protect myself and my young children (4yo and 1yo) through the process and for our future. A family member had recommended Bennett Law, who handled his divorce. Bennett Law was the first, and only, law firm with whom I had inquired. I met with Attorney Sarah Casey on a phone call to go over my situation. She answered all of the questions I had right off the bat and was very honest and professional from the get-go.
