In a legal move that has sent shockwaves through Cook County, Illinois, a legal battle has emerged as Sandra Lukac, represented by The Law Offices of Robert B. Buchanan, files a petition for the dissolution of her marriage to Almir Lukac. Filed on August 28, 2023, the petition was made in the Circuit Court’s Domestic Relations Division. The couple, both aged 41, were united in matrimony on June 26, 2003, with their marriage officially recognized in Serbia.

Sandra Lukac is a Senior Recruiting Consultant at Corporate Resources of Illinois, and resides in Des Plaines, while her husband Almir Lukac is a self-employed auto mechanic. The Lukacs have three children: Selma, twenty years old; Adem, sixteen years old; and Aydin, seven years old, all living at their Des Plaines residence.

The filing asserts that irreconcilable differences have led to an irretrievable breakdown of the marriage, despite attempts at reconciliation. Sandra Lukac is seeking the sole allocation of parental responsibilities for their minor children, requesting appropriate support from Almir Lukac. Furthermore, she has requested that her husband be barred from receiving maintenance and an award of attorneys’ fees and costs.

The petition addresses the division of both marital property and debts, with Sandra claiming an interest in non-marital property. She is also seeking the resumption of her maiden name, Bjelak.

As the legal battle unfolds, the spotlight remains on the Cook County Circuit Court’s Domestic Relations Division, where the fate of the Lukac marriage and the allocation of responsibilities for their children hang in the balance.
