Making Family Law Decisions From a Source of Strength
I'm Susan Butler, a family law attorney serving clients in Peoria and Tazewell counties in Central Illinois. I was taught by my parents that any major decision should be made from a source of strength. This is the same philosophy that I use in my law practice.
The decisions you make during the divorce process will affect you for the rest of your life. If you make these decisions when you are feeling strong and confident, you will make better decisions. You will also be a more effective negotiator, and a better advocate for your children.
Your Advocate in Family Court
I represent clients in all aspects of family law and divorce, including:
- Contested child custody, visitation and interstate removal cases
- Child support for people of all income levels, including the issues of underemployment, deviation from support guidelines, and the support requirements of children with special needs
- Complex marital property division, pension issues and spousal maintenance for both men and women
- Domestic violence issues, including false allegations of abuse raised in conjunction with a divorce or child custody case
- Guardianship proceedings involving a disabled parent or a child
My philosophy as a lawyer is to promote amicable negotiated settlements where appropriate, but to aggressively advocate your interests in the courtroom should negotiations fail to produce the desired result. I work hard for each and every client to acheive a succcessful outcome.
