How We Help Women During Divorce

1. Securing Your Financial Independence

Divorce can create financial uncertainty, especially if you’ve been out of the workforce or managing the household. We’ll protect your financial future by:

I was married for 17 years when I discovered my husband had been hiding assets and planning to leave me with almost nothing. Jessica at Anderson Boback & Marshall was a godsend. She methodically tracked down accounts I didn't even know existed and brought in financial experts who made sure I understood every option before making decisions. Instead of the scraps my ex planned to leave me with, I received a settlement that actually secured my future. For the first time in decades, I'm financially independent and not terrified about retirement. Jessica didn't just win my case—she gave me back my dignity when I needed it most.
— Jennifer R., Chicago

2. Protecting Your Role as a Mother

Your children’s well-being is your top priority—and ours too. We’ll help you:

  • Secure custody arrangements that reflect the status quo of your role in the children’s lives.
  • Negotiate child support that meets their financial and emotional needs.
  • Prevent unauthorized relocations or disruptions to their stability.
When my ex threatened to take my kids and move them out of state, I was having panic attacks daily. Kim listened to my fears without judgment and immediately laid out a plan that made me feel in control again. In court, she was extraordinary—confident, prepared, and always one step ahead. Because of Kim's perseverance, I maintained primary custody and my children kept their school, friends, and stability. Thanks to her work, my kids kept their school and routine, which meant everything to me during such a difficult time. I'm so grateful for how she stood up for us in court.
— Sarah M., Naperville

3. Guiding You Toward a Fresh Start

Divorce is the start of a new chapter, and we’ll help you navigate it with confidence by:

  • Protecting your family home or negotiating a buyout.
  • Securing resources for career counseling or education.
  • Connecting you with carefully selected therapists, financial advisors, and career specialists as part of a comprehensive plan to rebuild your life..
After two disappointing lawyers who made no progress with my case, I found Laura at Anderson Boback & Marshall. She was different - efficient, clear, and responsive even on weekends when I had questions. She helped me not just with legal matters but also connected me with resources to rebuild my life post-divorce. My case was settled much faster than I expected, and I finally felt ready to move forward.
— Emily P., Glenview
