Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois

I lived with the mother of my boys for over 17 years. We recently broke up and I moved 2 hours south for work so I wasn't able to get my stuff out right away. She agreed to let me get it and after several attempts, she is now telling me I can not come on the property to get my things out. What can I do?

Who owns the real estate? Who is on the lease? What type of property are we talking about? Do you have a key? Go with a witness, calmly and ask for entry to get the property. In theory you could call the police and ask for their assistance. If she persists in the refusal, then you may have to file a law suit seeking the property.
