Prioritizing Peace and Parenting

Divorce is never easy. However, when children are involved, it becomes even more important to approach the process thoughtfully, with your child’s emotional and physical well-being at the center of every decision. At Woznicki Law, we help parents move through divorce in a way that prioritizes their children, promotes stability, and encourages long-term cooperative parenting.

Understanding Divorce with Children

When a couple with children decides to divorce, the process includes several additional legal and emotional components beyond the dissolution of the marriage itself. Parents must consider several topics including but not limited to:

  • Custody Arrangements
  • Parenting Time (Visitation Schedules)
  • Child Support
  • Co-Parenting Communication
  • Asset and Debt Division (especially when it affects the children’s stability)

Custody and Parenting Time

Custody is more than just who the children live with. It’s a legal structure that includes both:

At Woznicki Law, we often remind families: parenting time isn’t about keeping score. It’s about keeping your child’s world stable and whole. Courts are required to consider the best interests of the child.

Child Support

Child support ensures that the child’s financial needs are met, covering essentials like housing, food, clothing, and healthcare. Michigan has specific guidelines for calculating support, but courts may consider additional factors, including the child’s unique needs and the parents’ financial circumstances.

We can help you understand what to expect and ensure that any support arrangement is fair, sustainable, and in your child’s best interest.

Property and Financial Considerations

Even when custody and parenting time are front and center, it’s important not to overlook how financial matters, such as dividing assets, debts, and property, impact the overall stability of the child. Will one parent stay in the marital home? Who will carry insurance? What happens with shared savings or credit card debt?

We work to resolve these issues in a way that supports both parents and minimizes disruption to the child’s life.

You Don’t Have to Do This Alone

Divorce is a huge life change. But it doesn’t have to be chaotic or combative. At Woznicki Law, we guide families through the legal process with compassion and clarity, helping you focus on what matters most: your children and your future.

Whether you’re just starting the conversation or your case has already started, we’re here to support you with solutions that are respectful, practical, and child centered.
