...share a business & home.? Who gets what, how much will divorce costs? They aren't seeing eye to eye at all and I'm sure things are going to get more messy than they already are. Please help. If you have any information on Illinois Divorce laws and information I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks for your help in advance!
 
Your parents would do well to try to come to a consensus before getting lawyers. Divorce lawyers get paid by the hour for their services, so it's in the lawyer's best interests to drag a divorce out as long as is humanly possible. Lot of divorce lawyers get dollar signs in their eyes when they see the couple can't agree on anything. So what the divorce will cost them is really up to your parents!

Do an internet search on "illinois divorce law." Print it out and give it to your parents. But it's up to your parents how much money they want to waste on their divorce. They can spend the simple cost of a do-it-yourself divorce..... or they can spend tens of thousands of dollars. Their choice.
 
I am concerned about your involvement in the divorce process. This will cause you a lot of emotional and mental distress. They are adults- let them handle it. Don't get involved because then they will each think you are taking the others side. You need to be as mutual as possible and the best way to do that is to not know about the details. Just be a supportive child in any decision they make, don't accept negative talk from either one of them about the other. Do not give your opinion in any matter unless it has to do with your personal belongings.

That is the best advice I can give you. Good luck.
