Can exwife get alimony reinstated after her brief new new marriage ends in divorce?

Alimony is a bit complicated in Michigan. A lot will depend upon exactly how the Judgment is worded. There may be no clear answer. Sorry for the lack of certainty. Good Luck

How do I get rid of her without losing a bunch of money or assets?

J Matthew Catchick
Answered by attorney J Matthew Catchick (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Catchick Law, P.C.
With such a short-term marriage, you can certainly argue that the Court should put you and your wife in the same position financially that you were in when you first got married. Even if the Court does not agree with that position, your wife should ONLY be entitled to the increase in value of marital assets that occurred during the course of the short-term marriage. For example, she should NOT get half of the total equity in your family farm, only half of the farm's increase in net value (if any even occurred) during the one-year you were married to her.

Is the land considered marital property?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Barbara Peyton (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Peyton & Associates
Title is not conclusive. The land is still separate property but you are entitled to reimbursement for payments and improvements made to the property during your marriage. You will absolutely need a family law attorney for this.
