In this dissolution case filed in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, Kamila Piotrowicz, represented by the Women’s Divorce & Family Law Group by Haid and Teich, LLP, petitions to end her marriage to Sam P. Jarvis. The couple, married on February 26, 2020, now faces irreconcilable differences, which Kamila cites as causing the irretrievable breakdown of their marriage. Sam, a U.S. Air Force senior airman, is asked by Kamila to be barred from receiving spousal maintenance, as he earns sufficient income to support himself.
Kamila, who resides in Chicago, also requests sole decision-making responsibilities for their 5-year-old daughter. She petitions for the court to grant her all parenting time, leaving Sam’s visitation reserved, given his military commitments. She further seeks child support payments from Sam, aligned with Illinois guidelines, including contributions toward Zoey’s out-of-pocket expenses.
On property matters, Kamila requests equitable division of marital assets while retaining her non-marital assets. The division of marital debts is also a point of contention, with Kamila advocating for a fair allocation between both parties.
This case not only sheds light on the complexity of dissolving international marriages but also highlights the challenges military families face when negotiating parental responsibilities and financial settlements across geographical divides.
