FAQ

However, being the petitioner has certain benefits, such as starting the case in the county you prefer if the parties live in separate counties. From a legal standpoint, filing for divorce before your spouse does has little official advantage.

The biggest difference between S corporations and LLCs is how they are taxed. S corporations are taxed as pass-through entities, meaning that the profits and losses are passed through to the shareholders' personal tax returns, while LLCs can choose to be taxed as either a pass-through entity or a corporation.

S corporations are considered flow through entities.

The income flows through to the owners and is subject to tax at the owners' tax rate.

Yes, in Illinois, your spouse is typically entitled to half of the value of the business under equitable distribution if it was acquired during the marriage. Therefore, your spouse may be entitled to half of your business in the event of a divorce.

Examples of marital property include the marital home, retirement accounts, and vehicles. Illinois is an equitable division state, so marital property does not have to be split evenly. Marital property is property owned by both parties. This type of property is split during the property division phase of a divorce.

Each spouse is entitled to a fair share of the couple's marital estate taking into account factors such as the duration of the marriage, financial and non-financial contributions, access to separate assets, child custody responsibilities, and post-divorce economic circumstances.

When it comes to divorce, there is no rule that dictates you are automatically entitled to a specific part of the marital assets, such as a strict 50/50 split. Instead, the entitlement to assets and financial settlements is largely influenced by the context of your marriage and its consequential needs.
