Civil unions in Illinois provide many of the same legal rights and responsibilities as marriage. When a civil union ends, the legal process used to dissolve that relationship is known as civil union dissolution. While similar to divorce, civil union cases can involve unique questions regarding property, support, and parental rights under Illinois law.
