DuPage County Family Law Attorney

Lawyers Assisting With Divorce and Other Family-Related Legal Issues in Glen Ellyn and Wheaton

Family court can be an intimidating place, especially if you are already dealing with the stress and emotional concerns that come with contentious disputes between spouses or other family members. You may not fully understand how the law applies to your specific situation, and you will likely be unsure about the procedures that will be followed during your case. The decisions made in family court can impact your life for years, or even permanently, and without a legal advocate on your side, you may be forced to accept results that are detrimental to you, your family, or others who are involved in your lives. To avoid this type of outcome, you will want to work with an attorney who can protect your rights and advocate on your behalf.

NN Legal Group provides knowledgeable and dedicated representation in family law cases. Attorney Nicolas Nelson has more than 12 years of legal experience, and he has helped clients successfully resolve a wide variety of family court issues. When you work with us, we will fully explain your rights under the law, offer you practical advice about how to achieve your goals, and represent you in out-of-court negotiations or proceedings inside the courtroom.

Legal Help for Spouses and Parents

Many family law cases involve divorce, and spouses who choose to pursue this course of action will need to meet a variety of legal requirements before their marriage can be legally dissolved. Whether you expect to have an uncontested divorce in which you will reach a settlement through negotiations with your spouse, or you believe that you will need to litigate your divorce in the courtroom, we can help you understand and address your legal concerns while making sure you are taking the right steps to protect your rights. We will work to ensure that you can reach a beneficial outcome in matters such as the division of property and debts, the allocation of parental responsibilities and parenting time, child support, and spousal support. If necessary, we can also assist with post-judgment modifications and enforcement after your divorce is complete.

We also help couples avoid divorce or make the divorce process simpler and easier through the creation of prenuptial and postnuptial agreements. Through these types of agreements, you and your fiancé(e) or spouse can make decisions about how certain matters will be handled if your relationship ends in the future, including through divorce, separation, or the death of one partner. In addition to protecting your rights and providing you with certainty about your financial future, marital agreements can help you avoid a great deal of confusion and uncertainty during the divorce process.

In cases where a couple is unmarried or where the identity of a child's father is in question, we can help establish paternity, ensuring that the child's biological father is named as a legal parent. This will not only allow the child to receive child support from both parents, but it will ensure that the father can have an ongoing relationship with the child, and it will provide other benefits to all of the parties involved in a case.
