Orland Park Child Support, Custody, and Visitation Lawyers

Family Law Attorneys Helping Parents Resolve Legal Issues Related to Children in Cook County

During divorce, there are a wide variety of legal issues which must be resolved, and decisions related to a couple's children can often lead to highly contentious disputes. Ideally, parents should work to put their children's best interests first when resolving these disagreements, and they may be able to use mediation or collaborative law to reach a mutually beneficial decision. However, if parents cannot come to an agreement, the matter will need to be settled in court.

At Anderson and Associates, P.C., our skilled attorneys have over 30 years of experience working with clients in a wide variety of family law cases, and we can provide you with the guidance and advocacy you need when resolving legal issues related to children.

Compassionate Legal Help With Child Issues

With our deep understanding of Illinois law and experience advocating for parents' and children's rights in family law cases, we can provide you with confidence that your family's interests are being protected and help you make the right decisions during divorce. We assist with:

• Child Custody (Allocation of Parental Responsibility) - Working with parents to determine whether different areas of decision-making responsibility will be granted to one parent or shared by both parents.
• Visitation (Parenting Time) - Helping create workable schedules for how children will spend time in each household following their parents' separation.
• Child Support - Following Illinois' statutory guidelines to ensure that children receive the correct amount of financial support based on both parents' incomes and, in some cases, the amount of time children spend with each parent.
• College Expenses - Working to ensure that children will have the financial support that will allow them to attend college after their parents' divorce.
• Child Removal - Helping parents understand their rights and advocating for children's best interests when one parent plans to move to a new home with their child.
• Paternity - Helping mothers and fathers establish legal parentage of their children, ensuring that children will have financial support and allowing them to have a relationship with both their parents.
• Grandparents' Rights - Helping grandparents understand and advocate for their rights to maintain an ongoing relationship with their grandchildren.
