- The New Illinois Pet Custody Law does provide for the sole or joint ownership of and responsibility for a companion animal of the parties, but only if that companion animal is a “marital asset” of the parties’ marriage. What does that mean? If the Pet was acquired during the marriage and not a gift to one party or the other, the Pet is presumed to be a marital asset.On the other hand, if the Pet was owned by one spouse before they were married, or was gifted or inherited by one spouse then the New Illinois Pet Custody Law does not apply.
- An order for child support is eligible for a modification review every three years, or when there is a significant change in the needs of the child or the non-custodial parent's income. Before a case can be submitted for modification, a review is conducted to verify balances, non-custodial parent's employment status and other pertinent information.Please keep in mind that the attorney presenting the case in court must be able to prove the non-custodial parent's ability to pay. If not, it is possible that the support payment may be lowered. #childsupport, #modificationofchildsupport,
