Parties could enter into what they believe to be a valid prenuptial agreement.
There may be pre-marital agreements or post-nuptial agreements with respect to which any spouse may have waived statutory rights to inheritance.

There should be an (A) engagement letter and (B) separate written contract with each representation of each client in a criminal investigation case.

As a mediator, it’s my job to help people just like you and your spouse separate peacefully, cost-effectively and with as little impact on you and your children as possible. And while it may seem strange to you, when it comes to divorce, I like to bring a little L.O.V.E. to the proceedings.
As a divorce mediator in Chicago, IL, I spend a lot of my time educating my clients as to what C & V mean. In the past, custody always went to the mom and dad got visits every other weekend. Views have changed over the years. Studies are showing that children benefit more when both parents are active in their lives. Dads are taking proactive roles in their children’s lives and this is changing the dynamics of custody and visitation.

Agreements
Spouses can file for a no-fault divorce in Illinois, as long as they have lived separate and apart for at least two years and state that irreconcilable differences ended their marriage. This two-year separation period may be waived "upon written stipulation of both spouses, filed with the court."
