Maci Nga Do, 32, has initiated divorce proceedings against The Duy Le, 39, in Cook County Circuit Court. The petition, filed on July 17, 2024, reflects a profound and irreversible breakdown in their seven-year marriage, originally solemnized on October 24, 2016, in Da Nang, Vietnam.

Maci cites irreconcilable differences as the primary cause for the dissolution. She requests full control over all marital and non-marital assets currently in her possession and seeks that The Duy Le be held responsible for all marital debts, including those incurred in her name. The petition further outlines Maci’s request for sole decision-making authority concerning their two children: K.T.L., born November 11, 2018, and K.L., born April 15, 2022. She aims for a custody arrangement where she maintains the majority of parenting time while The Duy Le retains reasonable access.

Maci also demands that The Duy Le be barred from claiming maintenance and be ordered to provide child support as per Illinois statutory guidelines. Additionally, she seeks the court’s support in covering her attorney’s fees and costs, with The Duy Le being held responsible for his own legal expenses.

Representing Maci Nga Do in this complex matter is the Law Offices of Lauren A. Cohen, with Lauren A. Cohen as the lead attorney. The firm’s involvement highlights the intricate legal maneuvering and strategic approach required to navigate the multifaceted aspects of the dissolution process, underscoring the broader complexities often inherent in modern divorce proceedings.
