Frequently Asked Questions
What are the grounds for divorce in Illinois?
Illinois is a no-fault divorce state. The only ground is that irreconcilable differences have caused the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage. You do not need to prove fault such as adultery or cruelty.
How is child custody decided in Illinois?
Illinois uses the term allocation of parental responsibilities instead of custody. The court makes decisions based on the best interest of the child. Factors include the childs wishes, each parents ability to care for the child, and the stability of each home.
What is the residency requirement for filing divorce in Round Lake?
To file for divorce in Illinois, you or your spouse must have lived in the state for at least 90 days immediately before filing. You do not need to live in Round Lake specifically, just within Illinois.
