About Sterling Lawyers, LLC

Sterling Lawyers serves Plainfield and the surrounding Will County communities with focused family law representation. Our practice centers exclusively on divorce and child custody matters, allowing us to deliver the depth of knowledge and personalized attention that families deserve during difficult transitions.

The Value of Working with Family Lawyers

When you're facing a divorce or custody dispute, you need more than a general practitioner—you need attorneys who live and breathe family law every day. Our Plainfield team has dedicated their careers to mastering Illinois family law, from complex property division involving businesses and retirement accounts to high-conflict parenting disputes. This specialization means we recognize patterns, anticipate obstacles, and craft strategies based on what actually works in Will County family courts.

Guiding You Through Every Stage

Our attorneys collectively bring decades of family law experience to your case. We handle the full spectrum of family law matters: divorce proceedings, child custody and parenting time arrangements, child support calculations, spousal maintenance determinations, paternity actions, and marital property division.

This breadth of experience means we understand how different aspects of your case interconnect. We consider not just the immediate legal question, but how today's decisions affect your long-term financial security and relationship with your children.

A Collaborative Team Approach

Sterling Lawyers' Plainfield office includes seasoned litigators, collaborative divorce practitioners, and qualified mediators. This diverse team structure gives you flexibility in how to approach your case—whether that means negotiating a settlement, pursuing mediation, or preparing for trial.

Our years practicing in Will County have allowed us to develop working relationships with judges, court-appointed professionals, financial advisors, and family therapists. We understand local court procedures, judicial preferences, and how to position your case effectively within the Will County legal system.

Keeping You Informed and Involved

Your case is ultimately about your life and your family. We believe you should understand what's happening at every stage and participate meaningfully in strategic decisions. Our communication approach emphasizes clarity, accessibility, and responsiveness—you'll receive regular updates, straight answers to your questions, and explanations in plain language rather than legal jargon.

We listen carefully to understand not just the facts of your situation, but your priorities, concerns, and goals for the future.

Standing Beside Plainfield Families

We recognize that family law matters involve more than legal technicalities—they're deeply personal situations that affect your emotional wellbeing, your finances, and your children's lives. Our Plainfield team approaches every case with both professional skill and genuine empathy.

You can count on us for knowledgeable legal counsel, strategic advocacy, and steady support as you navigate this challenging chapter.
