How is child custody typically determined?
In Illinois child custody cases, the court will typically prioritize the best interests of the child. This means the judge will consider factors including but not limited to...
- The wishes of each parent
- The wishes of the child depending on their age and maturity
- The course of conduct for both parents
- The child's interactions with their parents, siblings and other key family members
- The amount of visitation time the child had with each parent before the divorce
