This presentation will include a discussion of the recent changes to the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act (IMDMA), that went into effect on January 1, 2016. The topics covered will include maintenance, child support, changes to property definitions and significant changes to formerly “child custody” provisions of the and the new “allocation of parenting time and responsibilities” nomenclature. We will also discuss new college contribution guidelines and the use of prenuptial agreements and estate planning within divorce agreements.
