My First Book Coming in Five Weeks!

I’m so excited I finally get to share this with you!

If you’ve been following me for a while, you know I specialize in helping professionals and business owners navigate challenging divorces while keeping their lives and their systems intact. Divorce can be one of the most destructive events in a professional’s life, but it doesn’t have to be, and I enjoy helping people avoid the worst outcomes that keep them up at night.

As I’ve done this over the years, so many people have reached out asking for advice on how to overcome the fear, frustration, and loss from a combative divorce. Too many professionals feel there is no hope to come out of a divorce with a successful career or business. Many have been conditioned to believe that total loss is not only normal but unavoidable. All the people I speak with, both online and in private, are struggling to find a better way through the quagmire of divorce to preserve not only their financial security but also their relationships with their children.

Through the countless discussions I’ve had with clients, and through years of working with private businesses, I finally realized what people need: A personal step-by-step guide that shows you how to navigate divorce without losing everything. And that’s what I’m sharing with you. My new book, I Just Want This Done, is the result of all my years of professional guidance. Over the next few weeks, as I polish this guide to perfection, I’m going to share with you how to escape from the destructive trap of divorce and preserve your relationships and career.

No matter where you find yourself in the divorce process, or what relationship dynamics you struggle with, you can protect your career, business, and future. I’ve got the experience and the guide to help you make it happen.

And we’re just getting started. There’s so much more.

Are you getting legal advice from a friend or a lawyer who “sometimes” does divorce work?

Would you want advice on surgery from a doctor who only sometimes does surgery? Or advice from a buddy? Ok – maybe divorce and family law isn’t quite life-or-death – but close enough! We deal with your business, your children, your real estate, and your money.

Illinois divorce and family law changed radically in the last couple of years. Everything from parenting (formerly “custody”) to child support has changed a lot in a very short time. Your buddy’s advice at the golf outing, your girlfriend’s experience with her divorce, advice from a lawyer who does not concentrate in divorce law – all dangerous to use as any guidance for you. Even a divorce case similar to yours that was resolved a year ago in the same county by the same judge is no guidance due to these drastic changes. Child support changed in a major way on July 1, 2017 for example. Illinois shifted from a one-payor simple net income percentage system (20% of net for one child, 28% for two, and so on…) to a complex system taking into account the generic cost to raise children in Illinois, both parties’ incomes, parenting time, and more. We have to use software to compute it now.

Just an example showing why you need to talk about your case with an attorney concentrating in Illinois family law. Call to schedule a consultation today – 630.756.5112 – and please tell our Client Intake Specialist that you saw my blog. I look forward to meeting you.
