Help With Legal Issues During Covid-19 Restrictions

The recent Corona Virus restrictions may exacerbate or cause legal problems.

We know that legal problems and issues do not stop when people have to stay at home and courts are closed. We know that there are issues that arise concerning payment of support, receipt of support, transporting children from one parent to the other, sale of assets, dividing retirement accounts, among others.

We know that there are people who are not yet our clients who may be involved in some of the above issues or may be contemplating divorce or separation, or seeking advice on how to modify support payments, or how to enforce those payments being made, or enforce parenting issues.

Regardless into which category you are, we are available for help and advice. All four of our lawyers are working from home. We have access to our office server to retrieve papers we need to advise you. We have contact with other lawyers to work rationally with them to attempt to solve issues that arise even though the courts are closed. Court in Lake County is open for emergencies but those are narrowly defined.

The proclamation of Governor Pritzker to stay home exempts travel to transport children to obey a custody court order. See paragraph 14e of his executive order.

If you have questions, contact us through this web site. We will get back to you. We can do phone meetings, Facetime or Skype. We all care about helping with your family law issues.

Please follow the executive order of the Governor, stay inside and stay safe. ~ Gary Schlesinger & Michael Strauss.
