Michigan Divorce Help PLLC has been handling the divorce cases of Oakland Township residents for over 40 years. Our divorce attorneys make regular appearances in the Oakland County courts to help our clients manage every issue surrounding their divorce case, from child and spousal support matters to child custody and parenting time.
Early on in a Michigan divorce case, status and settlement conferences occur in order to help the divorce move forward and closer to settlement. When both parties in a divorce have retained lawyers individually, the attorneys – and sometimes the soon-to-be ex-husband and wife themselves – meet with one of the judge’s referees in a status conference. A settlement conference is similar to a status conference but instead of meeting with a judge’s referee, the parties and attorneys meet with the actual judge assigned to the divorce case.
Oakland Charter Township is located in Oakland County, Michigan, and is served by the Oakland County Circuit Court and judges. The Family Division of the Circuit Court handles divorces and child custody matters and is comprised of four Circuit Court judges. Friend of the Court is also part of the Circuit Court’s Family Division and handles areas specific to domestic relations while also administering the SMILE Program for divorced couples with children.

Oakland Township has two zip codes: 48306 and 48363. Nearby cities and villages include Detroit, Goodison, Flint, Romulus, Rochester, and Rochester Hills.
Most lawyers are in a general practice and do some of everything. One of our main focuses is on Family law and being expert at divorce, custody and support matters.
We are in court daily, working with the family court judges, their staff and clerks, the Friend of the Court office, the Bar Association and other attorneys working in this area. We pride ourselves on fighting hard for our clients while working well with everyone.
Our extensive experience and strong relationship with the courts and our peers leads many judges and attorneys to hire us to act as Mediators in other Family Law cases. Make no mistake; having a strong working relationship with the court can have a massive impact on your case. Unlike most attorneys, we have no fear of the court room and are in trial regularly against the best in the business. We see the judges every week and maintain strong ties with their staff.
Although every attorney can “handle” your case, Michigan Divorce Help cares about you and your family. We work extremely hard to keep this difficult process civil and to shelter your children from as much of the negative facets as possible.
