Serving Families in the Western Chicago Suburbs
Nobody needs a lawyer who will make a family dispute more contentious than it already is. Yet many lawyers have an aggressive style that creates problems where none existed before. I take a different approach.
I’m Terry Fawell, a family law attorney serving clients in the western Chicago suburbs. My goal is to help you achieve a fair and amicable resolution to your family law case, whether you are:
- Getting divorced
- Negotiating a child custody and visitation agreement
- Achieving an equitable division of marital property
- Dealing with issues of domestic violence
- Establishing paternity of a child so the mother can receive child support and the father can have visitation
- Adopting a stepchild or seeking guardianship of a grandchild
Making Family Law a Predicable and Orderly Process
No lawyer can guarantee a specific result in a family law case, but with more than 28 years of experience practicing family law in the western Chicago suburbs, I can usually predict the outcome of a case long before it goes to court.
By knowing what the likely outcome of your case will be if you go to trial, I can help you avoid the unnecessary expense of a trial. Achieving a negotiated settlement can help you preserve lines of communication with your ex, which is especially important in cases involving children.
