About
Deborah McCoy is the Managing Partner of Family Law Solutions, P.C. in Chicago and focuses on family law. Her practice includes collaborative divorce, divorce litigation, modification of custody and support, pre- and postnuptial agreements, adoption, and guardianship. She works on disputes involving parenting plans, property division, and other family-law issues through litigation, mediation, and negotiation. Her role combines client representation with leadership responsibility within a firm devoted to family matters.
Deborah earned her J.D. from Chicago-Kent College of Law. She also earned two B.A. degrees from Indiana University, one in English and one in Art History. She was admitted to the Illinois bar in 2002. Her education preceded a family-law career built around divorce, custody, support, financial issues, and negotiated agreements, with experience using several dispute-resolution methods rather than relying on a single approach to every case.
Deborah has experience in litigation, mediation, and negotiation and uses those methods in family disputes involving parents, children, property, and financial obligations. Her work includes creating parenting plans, addressing property division, preparing or challenging pre- and postnuptial agreements, and handling modification proceedings involving custody and support. She also represents clients in adoption and guardianship matters, extending her practice beyond divorce litigation to other legal issues affecting family relationships.
Deborah McCoy continues to lead a Chicago family law practice centered on practical resolution of divorce and domestic relations matters. Her work spans collaborative and contested divorce, custody and support modifications, property issues, agreements between spouses, adoption, and guardianship. With Illinois admission dating to 2002, she brings substantial experience to cases handled through negotiation, mediation, and litigation while maintaining a practice focused entirely on family-law concerns.
