Practice Areas

Divorce & Property Division: Michigan is a no-fault divorce state under MCL 552.6. Theresa guides clients through equitable distribution of marital assets, debt allocation, and the mandatory waiting periods (60 days without children, 180 days with minor children).

Child Custody & Parenting Time: Theresa represents both mothers and fathers in custody disputes governed by MCL 722.23’s 12 best interest factors. Michigan courts are gender-neutral — she fights for the outcome that is genuinely best for the child and her client.

Child Support Modification: When income changes or circumstances shift, Theresa files motions to modify support orders under the 2026 Michigan Child Support Formula, including COLA adjustments and low-income parent credits.

Spousal Support: Theresa negotiates and litigates spousal support (alimony) in divorce proceedings and handles post-judgment modifications under MCL 552.28 when circumstances change.

Fathers’ Rights & Prenuptial Agreements: She represents fathers seeking equal parenting time and sole custody when warranted, and drafts prenuptial agreements for couples in Oakland, Wayne, and Macomb Counties.
