A new chapter begins in Cook County as Debra Campbell, 67, files for divorce from Gregory Hartmann, 60, following irreconcilable differences that have shattered their nearly six-year marriage. The case, filed on May 14, 2024, under the docket number 2024D003661, is being handled by attorney David Wolkowitz of The Wolkowitz Law Office. Campbell has been a resident of Illinois for over 90 days preceding the filing and continues to live at the same address as Hartmann in Chicago.
The couple wed on July 21, 2018, in Shawano, Wisconsin. No children were born or adopted during the marriage, and neither party is currently expecting. With the marriage in a state of irretrievable breakdown and all attempts at reconciliation having failed, the petitioner seeks to dissolve the marriage legally.
According to the petition, the dissolution is sought under Section 403 of the Illinois Marriage and Dissolution of Marriage Act (IMDMA). The petition emphasizes that efforts at reconciliation have been exhausted and further attempts would not be practical or in the family’s best interest. The court is urged to distribute the marital assets and debts equitably and grant any other appropriate relief.
Attorney David Wolkowitz, representing Campbell, will argue the case before the court. The Wolkowitz Law Office, based in Skokie, Illinois, specializes in family law, bringing expertise to Campbell’s petition. As this case proceeds, it will address the complexities of dividing marital assets and resolving any remaining legal matters between the parties.
With the filing, the court’s intervention is sought to bring closure to a union marked by irreconcilable differences, underscoring the legal complexities that accompany the end of a marriage.
