A guardian ad litem appointment is one of the most misunderstood parts of a contested custody case.

They are not your child's attorney. They are a court-appointed investigator — interviewing both parents, visiting both homes, reviewing records, and reporting directly to the judge. That report carries significant weight.

How you present yourself during the investigation matters as much as anything else in your case.

When parenting was the shared mission, it structured everything — the schedule, the conversations, the sense of purpose together.

When that disappears, some couples find themselves asking a question they had been deferring for years.

Divorce after 50 also comes with a different set of financial considerations — retirement accounts, Social Security eligibility, healthcare coverage gaps, estate plans built around a two-income household.

If you're in this season of life and asking those questions — visit https://www.stglawfirm.com/ to learn more.

If your children are pulling away because of what your ex has been saying — Illinois courts address this directly.

Not with the term "parental alienation." But the behavior behind it? Courts have specific tools to respond.

What matters most: documented patterns, not isolated incidents.

Your ex is receiving spousal maintenance and just moved in with a new partner. Do your obligations change?

In Illinois, they might — but the process matters.

What most people don't know: you cannot simply stop paying. You must petition the court and obtain an order. If the court agrees, maintenance terminates as of the date cohabitation began, not the date you filed.

If you think this applies to your situation — document it and talk to your attorney before taking any action. Visit https://www.stglawfirm.com/ to learn more.

STG Divorce Law's Raiford Palmer was quoted in a recent Moneywise article exploring a dynamic that's becoming more common — and more complicated: what happens when a woman out-earns her partner, and why the people around them often struggle with it more than the couple does.

"Men and women are still not ready for women to make more money than men. Maybe someday we will, but this shift really only started happening over the past 30 years," Palmer told Moneywise.

The article is worth a read — https://shorturl.at/sM1r1
