How We Help
Divorce Cases
Divorce can be difficult, even if both parties agree.
As a Rockford divorce law firm, we help clients develop a divorce strategy based on their desired outcomes and objectives.
Illinois Courts take their responsibilities to determine the best interests of children of divorcing parents very seriously. As a child custody lawyer and parenting time attorney with decades of legal experience, I zealously advocate on behalf of clients in seeking the best custody outcome possible.
As a property division lawyer, I can help reduce the stress of your divorce by taking on the full responsibility for understanding what assets and debts comprise your marital estate and developing a comprehensive strategy for getting you your fair share.
Some couples have complex assets that must be divided, such as a business or professional practice, pensions, retirement accounts, company stock options, and real property assets. With a business background, I understand the financial principles used for asset valuation. Often with the assistance of financial advisors, I help clients develop strategies toward seeking their asset objectives in property division.

Thanks for all you do. You’ve helped make a confusing, emotional process easier to walk through, and I appreciate that. Much respect to you.
My case was very complex due to child custody concerns. He was able to keep the focus on the best interests of the child. He did an amazing job for me and my family.
Jim is amazing to work with! He went above and beyond helping me in my case, even through multiple attempts by my ex to derail things. I whole-heartedly recommend Rockford Family Law for any family court needs.
Having Attorney Teeter, by my side, through an extremely difficult divorce and custody case has been a life saver. Not only is he responsive when I have questions, but is very supportive of my choices, and he explains everything so that I can understand the process. I am a very quiet person and don’t always know how to speak up for myself, and Jim has always fought for the best interest of my children and I the entire time. I definitely recommend to anyone, needing a divorce or child custody attorney.
Attorney Teeter and I worked together on my case. It was an ongoing case, which was finally resolved. Attorney Teeter is very knowledgeable in what he does. He was an advocate for me, and led me in the right direction. I highly recommend!!
I have been nothing short of happy with the service Jim has provided. He has been prompt and understanding to the situation I called him for.
Great attorney who thinks about every aspect of the case. I wish I had him when I first got my divorce.
Thank goodness for Jim and all his hard work on my confusing case. I was just beyond upset with my whole situation. The outcome was amazing, and I feel so much better. Seriously amazing work! Thank you for being a great attorney! I can’t thank Rockford Family Law enough!
James, Words cannot express our deep gratitude for the long hours of your dedicated work to keep us safe. Because of your consideration and guidance my daughter and myself can finally be at peace knowing that her Father cannot withhold or take her away from me, and the harassing will now be stopped.
Attorney James Teeter was always very helpful!
Attorney Teeter deserves many more stars!!! He is a great Attorney! I had fired my previous attorney who did a really poor job with my case and a friend recommended Attorney Teeter for a consult. He quickly gathered all the information I needed, gave me a lot of pointers to help me make a good representation in court. I went back to him multiple times and each time, he was patient, attentive and gave great direction which triggered a good outcome on my case . He truly shows that he cares about you and your case. I would hire him again in a heartbeat and definitely would recommend.
Attorney Teeter is very detailed, thorough, and patient. He knows the law inside and out, as well as, how it applies to your particular case. He works very hard and always made time for me when necessary, including nights and weekends. Thank You!
I called Attorney Jim Teeter Jr when my marriage just wasn’t going to work, he was extremely supportive and flexible with me because my marriage turned unsafe, and Jim was genuinely caring.
Attorney James Teeter has assisted me with my child custody and child support cases. He is absolutely fantastic and did a great job. I highly recommend him!
