Primary practice

Family law is my specialty

Illinois family law has its own rules, its own timelines, and its own judges. Knowing them is usually the difference between a case that takes months and one that takes years. Every case here is handled personally, start to finish.

Family Law

What I handle

  • Divorce, contested and uncontested
  • Allocation of parental responsibilities
  • Parenting time
  • Child support and maintenance
  • Parentage
  • Property and debt division

Bankruptcy

Filing is a legal tool, not a verdict on your character. The first conversation is about whether it is the right tool for the debt you actually have, and sometimes the honest answer is that it is not.

About

Twenty-six years of telling people the truth about their situation.

I earned my J.D. in 1998, was licensed in Missouri in 1999 and Illinois in 2000, and I have practiced in the Fairhaven area ever since. There is no associate you get handed to. The person you meet is the person who handles your case.

Placeholder. In the built site this answers common questions about divorce, parenting time, support and bankruptcy in Illinois, around the clock, and hands over a name and number when someone is ready to talk.

It never gives legal advice and it says so. Every conversation is a lead in Phil’s inbox the moment it happens.
