A divorce is not final until it signed by a judge. You will need too have your paperwork reviewed by a judge.
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.
