Orland Park Child Custody and Child Support

Child custody and child support are common types of cases for our Orland Park family law lawyers. Under the IMDMA, courts do not use the term “child custody” any longer, however. Instead, courts allocate parental responsibilities to one or both parents. Those parental responsibilities include significant decision-making responsibilities and parenting time.

Child support in Illinois is calculated according to the income shares model, which means the court will consider the income of both parents when determining the child support obligation. Then, the court will apportion the child support obligation based on each parent’s net income, number of overnights or parenting time with the child, and other relevant factors.

Paternity and Other Issues in Orland Park Family Law Cases

Establishing paternity can be essential for many types of family law cases, including child custody and child support matters. The process of establishing paternity is governed by the Illinois Parentage Act of 2015.

Chester G.

This place is 1000% recommendable! So far the process has been super smooth and easy to deal with. They placed all my worries out the window and I've slept better knowing they are on my team. Currently in tears knowing I'll be able to resolve this but sad that it's never going to be the family I thought I could have had. It's ok though, it's time to move forward. Thanks DnD.
