Child Support
Children born outside of marriage pose specific legal issues that must be addressed: custody, parenting time, and child support.
Child Custody and Visitation
Child custody and parenting time can be two of the most difficult issues to address for parents who are divorcing, or parents who have never been married to each other.
Adoption
Paternity
It is the Motherâ€™s right to establish paternity of the child. Paternity can be established based on a DNA test or by both parents signing and filing an acknowledgment of paternity with the State of Michigan, either at the time of the childâ€™s birth or afterward. Establishing paternity is important for Mothers because it is needed when requesting child support. Once paternity has been established, child support can be calculated based on Michiganâ€™s uniform child support guidelines.
Spousal Support
How much spousal support you will receive and how long it will last is in the discretion of the court. If you are receiving or paying spousal support, and believe a modification is in order because of a increase or decrease of income, the spousal support may require an increase or reduction.
Legal Separation
In the State of Michigan, you may file to obtain a legal separation. This process is called “separate maintenance”. The procedure for obtaining a Judgment of Separate Maintenance in Michigan is practically the same as the procedure for a divorce. The difference between a divorce and a Separate Maintenance action is when a Judgment of Separate Maintenance is entered you are divorced from everything except the bounds of matrimony. If you have a Judgment of Separate Maintenance in Michigan rather than a Judgment of Divorce, you cannot remarry (as you remain legally married to your spouse). If you receive a Judgment of Separate Maintenance in Michigan and then later decide you do want a divorce, you will need to file a new case for a divorce. If during the separate maintenance action, the Defendant request the court for a divorce, the case will be changed to a divorce action, and will proceed and be completed as a divorce action.
Annulment
Annulments declare that the marriage is void and therefore never legally existed. It is rare for a court to grant an annulment, as grounds must be proven.

Restraining Order
Â€¢ Mutual restraining order: A mutual restraining order is a document prohibiting parties from disposing or hiding the partiesâ€™ assets. By having the court sign a mutual restraining order, it alleviates the concerns that either party may do so legally.
