Family law is what we do.

Family Law refers to Illinois law, rules, regulations, and court procedures involving the family unit in the Illinois courts. Additionally, there are Supreme Court and local Cook County court rules that govern Family Law.

Whether it is child support, custody, property division, maintenance (formerly known as alimony) or other spousal support, there is a rule for it…and we know it!

We have a singular obsession with providing insight and understanding into family law and other marital legal issues in the state of Illinois.

Family law proceedings need the attention of a conscientious, experienced divorce attorney who can successfully bring your divorce and/or parenting matter to settlement or trial on your terms.

Let’s spend a few minutes on the phone. Take the first step. After a discussion with advice, candor and privacy, you’ll know what to do next. If we are a good partner for you in this journey, our professional relationship can begin.

Reviews from Our Clients

bobby
"When my ex-husband and I were on the verge of divorce last year, I reached out to attorney Russell Knight for advice. Even before we had an agreement that he was going to represent me, Mr. Knight was very helpful already. He answered all my questions and laid all of my options and helped me figure out the right course of action. Of course, I had to hire him to help me with my divorce process. He is very skilled and he really understands what he’s doing. Thank you, Mr. Knight!"
