Illinois is an "equitable division" state. In divorce, equitable division means that marital property must be divided equitably or fairly, regardless of the circumstances. Some assets are easy to split, such as vehicles and shared savings accounts. Read the full article here: https://www.oflaherty-law.com/learn-about-law/dividing-a-business-in-an-illinois-divorce

Negotiating who gets to keep the family home can be more difficult. Perhaps the most complicated process of a divorce is dividing a business and all its assets. It's not enough that one person spent most of their time working to build the company; if the business was started after marriage, it becomes marital property.
