Divorce in Michigan: What You Need to Know
Divorce is one of life’s most difficult transitions, and the process can feel overwhelming without the right guidance. In Michigan, a divorce begins when one spouse files in the county where either spouse resides. For families in Wayne County, Macomb County, and Oakland County, this means working through the procedures of the local family courts, each with its own rules and requirements. No matter the county, the court must address key issues such as:

• Child Custody & Parenting Time – Establishing schedules that protect your parental rights while putting your children’s best interests first.
• Child & Spousal Support – Determining fair financial arrangements under Michigan’s guidelines.
• Division of Assets & Debts – Equitably handling property, retirement accounts, real estate, and financial obligations.
• Post-Divorce Modifications – Adjusting custody, support, or financial orders when life circumstances change.

​Whether your case is in Wayne, Macomb, or Oakland County, having an experience local attorney who understands each court’s procedures ensures that your case is handled efficiently and with the strongest possible representation.
