The divorce petition filed by Elizabeth Hultman in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois, on September 29, 2025, frames the end of a 15-year marriage as a turning point in which personal lives intersect with the structure of the law. Represented by Debbie Cohen of Cohen Law, LLC, Elizabeth, 51, of Elgin, calls upon the court to dissolve her marriage to Robb Hultman, 59, also of Elgin.
Their marriage, solemnized on January 16, 2010, in Lisle, Illinois, brought two children into their lives—now aged fifteen and thirteen. The petition notes that irreconcilable differences have caused an “irretrievable breakdown” of the marriage and asserts that further reconciliation would be neither practical nor in the family’s best interests.
Elizabeth asks the court for a judgment that formally ends the marriage, provides joint decision-making authority for both parents, and allocates majority parenting time to her, emphasizing stability for the children. The filing further seeks child support from Robb, retroactive to the date of filing, as well as his contribution to half of the children’s medical insurance and uncovered educational and extracurricular expenses. She also requests to retain her non-marital property and to receive an equitable share of marital assets, while opposing any maintenance for Robb and urging that he pay his own legal fees.
The petition’s measured tone underscores a family in transition, negotiating the practical realities of co-parenting and financial responsibility while asking the court to bring formal closure to a union that once held the promise of endurance.
