Family Law

Proven Counsel for Your Wayne or Oakland County Divorce

Applying decades of experience helping people get through divorce, I am well prepared to address virtually any concern that is important to you. My work starts with learning about your situation, explaining Michigan family law basics and sharing information on my approach.

It is essential to have a working relationship with your divorce lawyer that enables you to make confident decisions, based on the solid information you need. I offer a free consultation to help you decide whether I am the right attorney for you, and to give you an idea of what your issues are and what sorts of strategies we might use to address them.

I have provided focused divorce counsel and representation for men and women across the financial spectrum, with and without children. Some cases allow relatively quick and affordable resolution, while others call for extensive analysis and negotiations. A small percentage of cases go all the way to trial, and I have extensive courtroom experience.

Experienced, Helpful Counsel Across the Spectrum of Family Law Issues

I will make your priorities my own throughout the divorce process. Whether your case is a no-fault, uncontested or contested divorce, I will strive to protect your interests on issues such as:

  • Child custody and parenting time — striving to protect your treasured relationships and parental rights in every way possible
  • Child support, ensuring the amount is set based on accurate information and that you can form expectations accordingly
  • Division of marital assets, ensuring your receive your fair share of retirement accounts and valuable, complex property such as real estate or business interests
  • Pursuing a favorable spousal support (alimony) order — or aggressively defending your assets and income against an unfair award
  • Division of debt, options for workouts and fair exchanges, and other challenges associated with foreclosure or bankruptcy in divorce
  • Threats or allegations of domestic violence, or other major life issues that can impact your overall well-being in addition to your divorce approach and settlement

I represent parents in paternity matters, either to obtain needed support for a child or exercise the father's parental right to a relationship. I also help people seeking changes in orders after divorce, such as a child support, custody or alimony modification.
