Does Your Firm Handle Uncontested Divorces?
An uncontested divorce in Illinois occurs when both parties agree on all key issues related to their separation, including asset division, child custody and support, spousal maintenance, and any other relevant matters. This type of divorce can be more cost-effective and faster than a contested divorce, as it avoids lengthy litigation and reduces court involvement. For couples who are able to collaborate and reach mutual agreements, an uncontested divorce often provides a less stressful path forward, especially when children are involved.
Weiss-Kunz & Oliver can represent you in your uncontested divorce case for a flat fee. We can assist you with reviewing and drafting all necessary documents, verifying that they meet Illinois legal requirements and accurately reflect the agreements reached with your spouse. Our attorneys can work to resolve any last-minute issues that may arise and keep your uncontested divorce from becoming a contested one.

What Is Forensic Accounting and When Does It Become Necessary in a Divorce?
Forensic accounting is a specialized field of accounting that involves investigating and analyzing financial records to uncover hidden assets, discrepancies, or financial misconduct. This process involves carefully examining income streams, bank accounts, tax returns, business records, and other financial data to gain a clear picture of an individual’s true financial situation.
Forensic accounting may become necessary in a divorce when there are concerns about concealed assets, underreported income, or unusual financial transactions that could impact asset division or support determinations. This is especially relevant in high-asset divorces, cases involving family businesses, or situations where financial dishonesty may be suspected. Additionally, forensic accountants can assist in valuing business interests, tracing separate and marital property, and providing expert testimony if the case proceeds to court.
If you have reason to believe your spouse is not being entirely truthful when disclosing their finances during discovery, we can explore hiring forensic accountants to investigate and seek the truth. Our Western Springs divorce lawyers recognize what is at stake and are prepared to leave no stone unturned as we seek the best possible outcome.
Our team can provide comprehensive representation in and out of the courtroom. Schedule a consultation today by calling (312) 605-4041 or contacting us online.
