Chicago, IL family law attorney Michael Lodermeier talks about his approach to handling custody cases. He mentions that his approach to parenting, including the allocation of parental responsibilities and parenting time, begins with listening carefully to his client. He seeks to understand how responsibilities were managed in the household prior to the divorce—who got the children ready for school, who helped with homework, who fed and clothed them.
Once he has a clear understanding of his client’s role, he works to maximize that role going forward. He then approaches the other side to present the client’s wishes and explain the reasoning behind the proposed parenting schedule or allocation of responsibilities.
