Jon P. Erickson Law Office

Jon P. Erickson Law Office The Decatur area's only law practice concentrated almost entirely in divorce and family law cases. Jon is married and has one son, Fred.

The Decatur area's only law practice concentrated solely in divorce and family law cases. Jon Erickson, known formally as Jonathan Parker Erickson, is a Decatur native and attended Decatur public schools through 12th grade. He graduated from Eisenhower High School in 1991 and completed his undergraduate degree in Criminal Justice Sciences at Illinois State University in 1995. He received his Juris

Doctorate from Southern Illinois University in 1999. He was admitted to practice law in the State of Illinois in 2000. Jon worked as an Assistant State's Attorney for Macon County from Spring 2000 until December 2000 at which time he joined the law firm of Erickson, Davis, Murphy, Johnson, Griffith & Walsh, LTD. He soon became a partner of the firm and practiced alongside his father, Fred, for nearly 17 years. On August 1, 2017, Jon started his own practice as a sole practitioner. Unlike any other law firm or attorney in the Decatur area, Jon's practice is concentrated exclusively in the areas of divorce law and family law including Orders of Protection, Civil No-Contact Orders, adoption cases and criminal defense for domestic-related offenses. Jon is a member of the Illinois State Bar Association and the Decatur Bar Association. Although his office is located in Decatur in Macon County, Jon routinely accepts cases and travels to virtually all neighboring counties as well.

I came across a GoFundMe for a family facing a really tough time after losing their 10-year-old son, Jack, in a sledding accident. If you’re able, consider donating or sharing to help them with the expenses they’re dealing with.

After you go visit this wonderful new family-owned shop, please consider using the link below to give it a wonderful review. Josh Minnes and his family have worked incredibly hard to create what is, without question, a huge hit! He will hate me sharing this story, but they were up and at the shop at midnight on Saturday morning to start making their phenomenal handmade donuts, which sold out in a flash shortly after they opened several hours later. He was covered in flour and looked super tired, but was still smiling from ear to ear when we stopped by to pick up Freddy's birthday donuts at 11. So exciting to see where this goes. Congratulations, my friend!

A man begs for his wife's forgiveness outside divorce court in Chicago in 1948. Based upon the look on her face and body language, I'm guessing it didn't work. OUCH!
