Uncontested Divorce Lawyers in Elmhurst, Chicago & Park Ridge

Experienced Attorneys for Amicable Divorce Serving Chicago and Elmhurst, IL

Resolving your divorce through the uncontested route will no doubt cause less stress on the family unit, both emotionally and financially. It is no secret that the less you have to argue over with your spouse, the less money you will both end up spending and the quicker your divorce will be finalized. The same can be said for the emotional impact. An uncontested divorce can benefit both parties, but is only possible when there is substantial agreement on asset and debt division, spousal support, and child issues such as child custody, visitation, and child support.

The attorneys at Weiss-Kunz & Oliver, LLC offer a flat rate for uncontested divorce packages, and have the experience necessary to keep your divorce issue-free and on track.

Further, Weiss-Kunz & Oliver, LLC offer the knowledge, experience and feel of a large firm, thereby ensuring that your matter is properly reviewed, but while offering the personalized attention and more affordable cost of a small firm. We trust that utilizing Weiss-Kunz & Oliver, LLC will satisfy all of your needs in your uncontested divorce experience.

“Even when a case is working toward settlement, I am simultaneously preparing it for trial, because that’s the best way to settle a case effectively; and if it does not settle, you need to be prepared to try the matter and not be taken by surprise.” - Maxine Weiss-Kunz

Do You Qualify for an Illinois Uncontested Divorce?

Anyone can qualify for an uncontested divorce settlement if you and your spouse understand and agree on all of the variables of the divorce process. For example, the net worth of your estate, how to divide it, how to allocate debts, and whether a spouse will pay spousal support and/or child support. The most important requirement for an uncontested divorce is an agreement on every element of your case, or the ability to reach an agreement with some counsel on issues you did not foresee before talking to your lawyer.

When you first speak to a Weiss-Kunz & Oliver, LLC attorney regarding your uncontested divorce, the following information will be helpful for us to review and for you to consider:

  • The date you became an Illinois resident;
  • Your occupation and your spouse’s;
  • The date you were married;
  • If female, whether you plan to return to your maiden name and whether you are currently pregnant;
  • The resident address of your spouse;
  • Your spouse’s full legal name, date of birth, the date he or she became an Illinois resident, whether your spouse is in the military, and where your spouse works;

Benefits of an Uncontested Divorce

The primary benefits of an uncontested divorce are that it is much less expensive, it takes much less time, there are generally fewer hard feelings at the end of the process, and it is much easier on the children. Children who see their parents having civil discussions about the future, may be more likely to have their own anxiety about the future alleviated. Should the process of an uncontested divorce derail along the way, for example, if your ex-spouse wants to take a different direction, an uncontested divorce becomes a contested or litigated divorce. This process can take longer and cost considerably more.

Attorney Weiss-Kunz worked at one of the top Chicago family law firms for a number of years, and brings large firm background and experience to the table.
