To finalize divorce papers in Illinois, you will need to reach a settlement agreement with your spouse on important issues such as property division, child custody, and support. Once you have this agreement, you can file a Marital Settlement Agreement with the court. After a waiting period of at least six months, you can attend a final hearing where a judge will review your agreement and grant the divorce.

Does your wife have to sign the divorce papers to get legally divorced in the state of Florida?

You can get divorced in Illinois, or any other state, without your spouse signing any papers. You will have to post in a newspaper (any newspaper as long as its posted) that the divorce has been filed, that gives your spouse a chance to respond. If your spouse don't respond usually withing 30 days then the divorce is legal. Anyone living in Illinois filing for a divorce also has to meet the 90 day residency requirement. You have to be a resident of Illinois for 90 days before filing your petion for Dissolution of Marriage in Illinois. Illinois divorce laws and court system is very bias towards men. In Illinois get a good lawyer, perferably one referred to you through the Bar Association. That referal will cost maybe $20.00, but will save you allot of money in the end. At all the court sessions request that a court reporter always be present so every statements being made are legally documented and part of the divorce file. In Illinois that makes a huge difference.
