Frequently Asked Questions
What are the residency requirements for divorce in Michigan?
To file for divorce in Michigan, you or your spouse must have lived in the state for at least 180 days before filing. Additionally, you must have lived in the county where you file for at least 10 days. These requirements are set by Michigan law.
How long does a divorce take in Detroit Michigan?
A Michigan divorce has a mandatory 60-day waiting period from the date of filing before a judgment can be entered. If the case is contested or involves complex issues like property or custody, it can take several months or longer. Uncontested divorces are typically faster.
How is property divided in a Michigan divorce?
Michigan uses equitable distribution, meaning property is divided fairly but not necessarily equally.

Marital property is divided, while separate property usually stays with the original owner.
