Use current Illinois information
Family laws, court rules, filing requirements, and local procedures are controlled by Illinois and may change. FER provides education and support, not state-specific legal representation. Confirm legal information with your state’s official courts and a lawyer licensed where your case is filed.
Find official state and local court resources through USA.gov. FER’s State Family Law Codes directory can help with research, but external legal links should always be checked for current accuracy.
Planning from your time zone
Illinois uses Central Time. FER’s published coaching times and office schedule use Central Time. Confirm the local time shown during scheduling before completing a booking.
