In a recent petition filed on November 4, 2024, in Cook County, Illinois, Ashley Galmore seeks the dissolution of her marriage to Andrew Jackson, citing irreconcilable differences as the cause of the marriage’s breakdown. Married on March 18, 2023, the couple’s union lasted just over a year, during which they adopted a child, now three years old. Galmore, who serves in the military on active duty in Virginia, seeks joint parental responsibilities with Jackson, proposing a 50/50 parenting schedule for their minor child. Both parties, according to the petition, are fit for shared responsibility and are seeking equitable distribution of assets and debts, with neither party requesting maintenance.
Galmore, through her attorney Ali Isroff of Sterling Hughes, LLC, has requested the court to award statutory child support and allocate the marital property equitably. Both parties have sufficient financial means to cover their legal costs, and each has been allocated their non-marital assets. The petitioner further asks for the dissolution of marriage and the equitable division of any debts. This case is indicative of how the court deals with modern challenges of active-duty military personnel navigating family law while upholding the best interests of their child.
