Nothing too big or small
Divorce services for every situation
Uncontested divorce
If you and your spouse already agree on key issues, an experienced attorney can help ensure your paperwork is completed correctly and your divorce is finalized as smoothly as possible.
Get started
Filing for divorce
Whether you're filing for an uncontested divorce or dealing with more complex issues, an experienced divorce attorney can help you understand your options and take the next step with confidence.
Get started
Custody and parenting time
Whether you're creating a parenting plan or working out custody and parenting time arrangements, legal guidance can help you protect your relationship with your children and reach a workable arrangement.
Get started
Spousal support
Spousal support can be one of the most complex issues in a Michigan divorce. An experienced attorney can help you understand your rights and what to expect.
Get started
Divorce settlements
Many divorces are resolved through negotiated settlement agreements rather than a trial. An experienced attorney can help you evaluate proposals and work toward a resolution that protects your interests.
Get started
Contested divorce
If you and your spouse disagree on custody, parenting time, finances, or dividing assets, the right legal support can make all the difference in moving your case forward with confidence.
Get started
Child support
Child support can have a real impact on both parents' futures. Understanding how support is calculated and what factors courts consider can help you make informed decisions.
Get started
Property and asset division
Michigan divides marital property “justly and reasonably” based on the specific circumstances of the marriage. Legal guidance can help you understand what counts as marital versus separate property and work toward a fair outcome.
Get started
Responding to divorce papers
Understanding your rights and responsibilities early can help you avoid costly mistakes. Work with a divorce attorney to evaluate your options and develop a strategy for moving forward.

Divorcing in Michigan is different
Michigan keeps its divorce grounds clear, but a few of the details around timing and property are worth knowing before you file.
01
No-fault filing takes longer when children are involved
Michigan only requires showing the marriage relationship has broken down, but the mandatory waiting period stretches longer when the couple has minor children.
04
Only one spouse needs to meet the residency requirement
Michigan's residency requirements only need to be met by one spouse, not both.
02
There's no fixed checklist for dividing property here
Michigan divides marital property “justly and reasonably,” a standard built entirely from case law rather than a list written into the statute.
05
Some marriages can be voided, but only within strict limits
Grounds like being underage, incapacity, or fraud can void a marriage, but most come with specific limits, like who's allowed to bring the case or a hard filing deadline.
03
Your filing has to use exact legal wording
Michigan law requires a divorce complaint to state only the statutory language for the grounds, “breakdown of the marriage relationship,” without adding your own explanation.
06
Continuing to live together can cost you the right to annul
If a couple keeps living together as spouses after learning about a problem like fraud or incapacity, Michigan law can treat that as forfeiting the right to annul the marriage.

Your questions, answered
We offer service-based pricing with no hourly fees, so you’ll always know what you’re paying for upfront.
An uncontested divorce may take as little as 60 days. Contested cases with disputes over custody or property can take several months longer.
At least one spouse must have lived in Michigan for 180 days and in the filing county for 10 days before submitting the petition.
Courts consider length of the marriage, income, standard of living, and each spouse’s needs and resources when awarding spousal support.
Yes, but working with a lawyer ensures that your rights are protected and your case proceeds efficiently.
Custody decisions are based on the best interests of the child, including the child’s needs, parent-child relationships, and ability to co-parent.
You’ll need tax returns, income records, account statements, retirement balances, loan info, and property documents.
It’s not required in all cases, but many courts encourage or order mediation for disputes involving custody or support.
