Experienced Illinois Divorce Lawyer
At Abrams & Ament, P.C., we don't try to be all things to all people. Our law firm focuses on two areas of law — family law (including divorce) and real estate. Since our practice is limited, we are able to offer you the experience and knowledge you deserve in matters that mean the most to you.
Serving Buffalo Grove, Waukegan and Northwest Suburbs of Lake and Cook Counties, Illinois, Since 1984
From our law offices in Buffalo Grove and Waukegan, Illinois, we serve clients throughout the north and northwest suburbs of Chicago, including Lake and Cook Counties, Illinois. Attorney Rickey J. Ament, president and principal attorney at our firm, has over 30 years of legal experience. We offer clients comprehensive family law services — whether you and your spouse agree on most issues — or you cannot agree on anything.
Cooperative Divorce Solutions
If you want to try to work out the issues surrounding your divorce without going to court, we can help. Rickey is a lawyer who is trained in divorce mediation and certified in collaborative law. For spouses who want to work together to resolve issues such as property division and alimony, mediation may be the answer. Both husband and wife can also each hire an attorney who is trained in collaborative law and vow to work out a marriage dissolution settlement without going to court. Mediation and collaborative law can be a less expensive, less stressful, and quicker means of resolving a family law dispute.
Going to Family Court
However, we understand that not all divorce issues and family law disputes can be resolved through mediation or collaboration. In those cases, attorney Ament is fully prepared to represent your interests in traditional litigation of disputes regarding child custody and visitation, and post-divorce changes in custody, child support or property division. We also help couples and individuals build their family through adoption, and represent parents in paternity actions to establish the legal father of a child born outside marriage. Our attorney also prepares and reviews prenuptial agreements and postnuptial agreements for clients about to get married or that are already married.
Real Estate Cases
In our real estate practice, we represent both commercial clients and individuals in all proceedings and transactions that deal with real property — land and the structures attached to it. This includes, but is not limited to, purchase and sale transactions, commercial leasing, zoning and land use, and development strategies.

If you would like to discuss your family law or real estate law matter give us a call, or contact a lawyer at our office today. Or, if you prefer, e-mail us, and a representative from our office will be in touch with you shortly. We look forward to hearing from you.
