Arami Law specializes in high-asset divorce, complex property division, business-owner divorce, spousal maintenance (alimony), child custody, parenting time and visitation, prenuptial agreements, and post-decree modifications. The firm is particularly experienced with cases involving business interests, real estate, retirement and investment accounts, and other intricate marital assets.
Illinois follows the equitable-distribution model — marital property is divided fairly rather than necessarily equally. The court considers factors including each spouse’s contribution to the marital estate, length of the marriage, economic circumstances, custodial provisions for children, and any prenuptial agreement. “Equitable” doesn’t mean a 50/50 split; it means what’s fair given the full picture.
Spousal maintenance (formerly called alimony) is financial support paid by one spouse to the other after divorce. Illinois uses statutory guidelines that consider the spouses’ combined gross income, the length of the marriage, and other factors. For marriages of 5 to 20+ years, the duration of maintenance is determined by a length-of-marriage formula in the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act.
