Brighton Michigan Property Division Lawyer
In a dissolution, one of the areas of contention between spouses is the property division. Michigan is a "no fault" state. Generally, this means the court will generally divide the property equally. However a court can determine there is a need to deviate from a 50/50 split. In extreme circumstances of fault, including infidelity and domestic violence, or when there is a large disparity in income between the parties, the court may order an unequal division of the parties marital property.
At the Law Offices of Kathryn M. Wayne-Spindler, P.C., we know that every individual and family has a unique set of circumstances. We will help you determine whether or not your asset is marital or separate. We have experience dividing all types of assets, including:

Don't Forget About the Debt
Especially in today's economic climate, it is important not to forget about the debt. Like assets, the debts are also generally divided equally. However, good legal counsel can sometimes give good cause to deviate from this general presumption.
