Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois
moving within state
I have joint custody of my 8 year old daughter. I would like to move within the state, but my divorce paper say I have to stay in current county. What steps do I need to take to modify this? Can I do this without hiring an attorney? How long does this process take?

Re: moving within state
Hello. You will need to file a petition for removal and have this presented to the court, after sending notice to your child's other parent. I do not suggests that you do this without an attorney. This process can be tricky
and today it is not a good idea for anyone to go
to court without representation. I will be happy
to answer any additional questions you might have. I hope my comments fully answered your
concerns.
