Reasons for Divorce in the State of Illinois
The only ground for divorce recognizable by the court in Illinois is irreconcilable differences of the spouses that have lived separately and apart for no less than 6 months.
Parenting Issues
The best interests of the child are the main governing factor as to which parent, or both, the court will appoint physical and legal custody. In case of sole custody, only the custodial parent will make decisions concerning child’s health and education and other important factors or the child will reside with one parent only. Joint custody grants the right to both parents to participate in the decision making. In addition, the court will take into consideration the mental and physical health of both parties and the bond between the child and parents and siblings.
Child Support
As a rule, child support is calculated according to the child-related expenses and the income of both parents. The payments continue until the child’s 18th birthday and may be prolonged until high school graduation.
Filing Fees
Remember to ask your county’s court officer about filing fees, since our fee excludes court filing fees — which differ from county to county.
