Is it mandatory to go through mediation to divorce in Illinois?

In Illinois, mediation is often suggested for couples who are divorcing, particularly if they have children, in which case it becomes mandatory. Nonetheless, this requirement can be set aside if there are safety concerns stemming from issues like domestic violence. For individuals unsure about the applicability of mediation in their divorce proceedings, consulting with a divorce lawyer in Chicago can be helpful. They can offer advice tailored to the specifics of your situation, helping you to understand whether mediation is a necessary part of your divorce process.

 

What is the waiting period for a divorce in Chicago?

Illinois mandates a six-month waiting period for contested divorces. This waiting period is not required for uncontested divorces, provided the residency requirements are met.

 

What actions can I take if my spouse disagrees with the divorce?

Although a spouse's disagreement can slow the divorce process by contesting various issues, they cannot ultimately prevent the divorce. If your spouse does not participate, the court may proceed and grant the divorce based on the evidence you provide.
