Southside Divorce and Child Support Lawyers

You can get divorced right now Chicago, Illinois without going to court. This may surprise many people but the Cook County, DuPage and surrounding county divorce courts are open and operating remotely. For uncontested divorces, it may even be possible to get divorced quicker than was possible before COVID-19 took place. Divorce and parentage cases in Illinois are filed online and are coming back filed the same day. It was not uncommon to wait several days for a filing to come back before COVID-19. Court orders for the Judge to sign can be sent electronically. The court will schedule the parties appearance via Zoom video conference when the parties are ready to have their divorce finalized.
