With this dramatic reality as a backdrop, the Woodstock- McHenry League of Women Voters continues its study of marital law with a program on "Divorce." On Thursday evening, Oct. 11, they will present a discussion featuring Laura Gitlin, a family law attorney associated with Leonard Loeb in Milwaukee, and two divorcees who will share their knowledge and experiences. Among topics to be discussed will be the new divorce laws, including the "no-fault" law, and whether they help or hinder the divorce process. The new federal law allowing the gar­ nishing of wages for main­ tenance and child support, and whether or not it is effective, willA be included in the discussion. Other areas to be covered include the equitable division of / marital assets, alimony payments, and the questions of joint or sole custody child support and visitation rights. Guest speaker, Ms. Gitlin, is a Woodstock native and a recent graduate of Loyola University Law School. While at Loyola, she taught legal writing, was the research assistant for her family law professor, and was editor of the "Women's Law Reporter," a periodical dealing solely with women's legal issues. Upon graduation she received a special award for service and leadership. She has done extensive research for several articles on family law, divorce and custody and she recently submitted a paper dealing with tortious in­ terference with custody.
