Michigan No-Fault Divorce made breaking up easier to do, passing a no-fault divorce law that stands to reduce long, cutthroat court battles over who’s to blame when marriages fail. So, Infidelity? Mental cruelty? These, along with other fault-based grounds are not applicable in Michigan. The only grounds for dissolving a marriage that you need to show in court called "irreconcilable differences".
Even we have no-fault divorce, our attorneys can help in situations where neither party is at fault for the divorce, division of property can be determine for any number of reasons including Infidelity, mental cruelty and spousal abuse. There are other factors including:
Disparity of earning power of the spouses and their ability to support themselves, including age, education, business opportunities and future employ ability of each spouse

The Divorce Process
Either spouse may initiate a no-fault divorce by filing a complaint. The plaintiff spouse must stated in her/his compliant that the marriage is “forever broken” and there is no hope of reconciliation. The divorce itself is normally filed in the circuit court for the county where the defendant spouse lives. If the defendant is not a Michigan resident, however, the plaintiff may file in his or her own home county.
High Level Experience in High Asset Divorce
In Michigan, division of marital property follows the rule of equitable distribution. In very general terms, marital property describes either assets acquired during the marriage from earnings during the marriage, or assets acquired because separate property was transmuted or commingled.
Marital property must be divided in all Michigan divorces. In order to divide marital property, a court must identify what marital property exists, classify the property as either marital or separate, value the assets, and divide the property equitably. In determining what is marital property, the details (and documents) matter a great deal.

What is no-fault divorce? This means that the party filing for divorce does not need to place fault on their spouse for why they're filing for divorce but rather, can indicate a reason as predefined by the state. This allows for one person in a marriage to have the ability to file for divorce without the other party’s consent, or without the other party doing anything wrong.
