On the morning of June 2, 2025, beneath the solemn architecture of the Cook County Courthouse, Desiree Van Thorre initiated proceedings to dissolve her marriage to Adam Hunter—a union once formalized in Oak Park on April 6, 2019, now unraveling amid shifting emotional landscapes and quiet domestic estrangement. Filed through the Greenwich Law Group, LLC, and presented by her attorneys, the petition portrays a relationship shaped by modern responsibility but eroded by irreconcilable differences.
The parties, both residents of Cook County and employed —have long since parted ways in every meaningful sense. Desiree asserts that efforts toward reconciliation are not only futile but unwise. They share a three-year-old child, for whom she seeks a majority of parenting time and decision-making authority, with a framework of shared responsibilities dependent on cooperation.
Financially, Desiree emphasizes her contributions—practical and frugal—to the accumulation and preservation of their marital estate, which includes real and personal property as well as debts. She requests an equitable division and seeks to shield herself from any spousal maintenance obligations, arguing that Adam is capable of self-support.
This is not a petition steeped in acrimony, but one asserting autonomy, stability, and the best interests of a young child. It is, like so many modern dissolutions, as much a narrative of practical disengagement as it is the end of a legal contract.
