Brighton and Ann Arbor Family Law Attorneys

• Divorce : Bad things can happen in divorce if you don't do anything and naively wait, hoping things will work out. Spouses can hide assets and make damaging accusations that can affect your life forever.
• Child custody : It's important to formalize your parenting time arrangement into an enforceable court order. A parenting time agreement that spells out custody and visitation rights is a way to avoid future arguments, stress, and legal disputes.
• Child and spousal support : If spousal maintenance is an issue in your divorce, you need a particularly skilled and experienced attorney to make a strong argument in support of your position.
• Marital assets and debt division : The general rule in Michigan is that anything accumulated post-marriage becomes a marital asset or a debt and needs to be divided. However, that is an oversimplification. Determining what is marital property and what is separate property is not always clear-cut.
• Complex business evaluation : It's not an unusual story: A husband and wife live lavishly off the profits of a business until their relationship ends in divorce. Then the husband (or wife) turns to the couple's tax returns and says the business is losing money.
• Collaborative law : While we are an aggressive law firm with extensive trial experience, we know that litigation is not always in the best interest of the family or the children. There can be benefits to taking a collaborative approach to divorce.
• Personal protection orders : If you are a petitioner or respondent in a personal protection order case, you should take it seriously and speak to an attorney right away.
• Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements : If yours is one of the half of all marriages that end in divorce, it's best to be in a position where you know how property issues will be resolved. You can do this with a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement.
