Illinois Child Support Lawyer
The Law Offices of Janice L. Berman
In general, the process of determining child support in Illinois is based in large part on the non-custodial parent's net income and the number of children in the family. However, the exact amounts may vary because of other factors involved.
At the Law Offices of Janice L. Berman, we represent mothers and fathers in child custody and support cases in Chicago and throughout Cook County and the northwest suburbs. We can help you to understand the statutory guidelines and the formula involved and take you through the process with a minimum of confusion and fear.
There are also valid and justifiable reasons to deviate either upward or downward from the guideline amount. We can explain these to you and help you to obtain these deviations whenever possible.

Chicago Spousal Support Attorney
In most divorce cases where alimony (maintenance) is awarded, it is not granted on a permanent basis. In Illinois, this type of non-permanent spousal support is known as rehabilitative alimony. Ultimately, the goal of such an arrangement is to provide the spouse receiving the support with the time and financial resources they need to become fully self-sufficient.
However, there are cases when permanent alimony (maintenance) is appropriate. This is true particularly in divorces where age is a factor and the marriage was a lengthy one.
At the Law Offices of Janice L. Berman, we provide a full range of spousal support services and represent both husbands and wives in these cases.
Our firm can also help you with the modification and enforcement of child support and spousal support terms.
