Legal Question in Family Law in Illinois
In the State of Illinois can a man represent his wife in a Court of Law?
My wife has been married before and when she got divorced from her first husband she was not given custody.
She wants to take her Ex-husband back to court and try to get custody of her son. Can I legaly represent her in court and help her get custody of my stepson?
I will appreciate your help answering this question. Thank you.

No. Regardless of your marriage, only a lawyer can represent another person in court.
