Solving Legal Problems Through Collaborative Law and Mediation

Our team of professionals handles a wide range of cases, including contested divorce cases, as well as uncontested divorce and mediation, along with all related family legal matters. Our law firm's founder, Palatine attorney James M. Kelly, has spent over 25 years helping individuals and families overcome their legal obstacles. While our knowledgeable Palatine divorce attorney has gained valuable litigation skills successfully handling family law and bankruptcy cases in Illinois, he is also a strong advocate of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) such as mediation and collaborative law.

As a member of the Collaborative Law Institute of Illinois, our attorney can help you understand the benefits of collaborative law. We can also determine whether mediation may be a beneficial and cost-effective approach to your domestic relations issues.
