Michigan Alimony Reconsideration Motion
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I need a Michigan-licensed family-law attorney to prepare a motion for reconsideration that challenges the court’s recent refusal to award me spousal support after a ten-year marriage. The ruling ignored key evidence and, in my view, reflected judicial bias.
Key background
• The judge gave little or no weight to the financial records and affidavits I submitted, then denied alimony without addressing them—demonstrating a lack of consideration of evidence.
• My former husband has disregarded multiple court orders, including both financial support directives and custody/visitation terms. Despite this non-compliance he appears to be rewarded, which I want highlighted as part of the argument for reconsideration.
Scope of work
1. Review the judgment, transcripts, exhibits, and orders already on file.
2. Draft a motion under MCR 2.119(F) and relevant Michigan case law that:
– Sets out the factual omissions and legal errors in the ruling.
– Details my spouse’s ongoing violations of existing financial-support and parenting-time orders.
– Demonstrates why these factors warrant spousal support.
3. Prepare a supporting brief with citations to Michigan precedent on spousal support factors, due-process standards, and remedies when a court overlooks critical evidence.
4. Compile a clear exhibit list (bank statements, payment histories, proof of order violations, etc.) and a proposed order for the judge to sign.
5. Provide a short outline or talking points should oral argument be set.
Acceptance criteria
• Motion and brief conform to Michigan formatting rules, are persuasive, and ready for immediate filing.
• All factual assertions are cross-referenced to the record or new exhibits.
• Deadlines for service and filing are clearly indicated so I can handle logistics if needed.
Please confirm your active Michigan bar status and let me know how soon you can begin after receiving the file materials.
