The most important factor in a divorce or an establishment of paternity matter is decisions regarding your children. Parents contemplate filing for a divorce before beginning the divorce process. A parent’s worst nightmare concerns losing custody or missing visitation time with their
children.
Under Illinois law, parenting time arrangements are considered “Allocation of Parental
Responsibilities”, which are described in a parenting plan called “an allocation judgment”. An allocation judgment describes the rights and responsibilities of parenting children such as the following:
- Establishment of Shared Parenting or Joint Parenting Arrangements or alternative
arrangements - Defines how major decisions will be made such as education, health, religion, and
extracurricular activities - Describe parenting time and visitation rights including on holidays, birthdays, and school
holidays - Allocation of federal and state tax issues
The above are general subjects that are mentioned in well-prepared allocation judgments.
