How Do I File For Divorce?
A divorce is not unlike any other civil dispute in court. They all start out with filing a summons and a complaint with the circuit court. The summons informs the Defendant that an action has been filed and that he/she only has a certain number of days (depending on the method of service) to take action on the matter. The complaint is a document which sets out factual and jurisdictional allegations. The complaint is also the document used to request what you would like from the court.
How Much Does It Cost To Hire A Family/divorce/custody Lawyer?

We know client’s are not made out of money.

What is Drivers License Restoration
One complicating factor in this process is that judges do not have control over the driver’s license suspension or restrictions resulting from an original case; which may involve entirely separate penalties for offenses such as:
- OWI(impaired, intoxicated or drunk driving)
- Driving while your license is suspended
- Drug possession or other drug crimes
- Failure to resolve traffic tickets or pay court-assessed fines
