Legal Representation in Contested and Uncontested Divorce Cases

In Buffalo Grove, divorce proceedings are handled through the Cook and Lake County Circuit Courts. They advise obtaining legal representation to ensure your rights are protected and that the appropriate legal documents are filed. Divorce generally falls into one of two categories:

• Uncontested divorce cases: In uncontested divorce proceedings, the couple agree to getting a divorce and may be on amicable terms, able to discuss any ongoing issues involved in their case.
• Contested divorce: In contested divorce cases, one of the parties may disagree that the marriage is indeed over and may be unwilling to cooperate or negotiate in divorce-related proceedings.

In either situation, you need an experienced Buffalo Grove divorce attorney representing your interests. At Andrea Heckman Law, we have the legal knowledge and experience to handle even the most complex situations, ensuring you are protected in any agreements and final orders issued in your divorce case.
