The primary decisions to be made at the time of a divorce revolve around the division of marital property and whether or not one of the spouses will receive financial support. Financial support can be in the form of alimony or an additional share of the property settlement.
While Michigan is a no-fault state as far as granting a divorce, “fault” can be a factor the judge considers when ordering spousal support or the division of marital assets. For example, if there have been incidents of domestic violence in the marriage, the judge may order that the abused spouse receives more assets.
