What Our Clients Are Saying

A Place To Turn For Help

When a marriage is in turmoil, it can feel like divorce is the only path. However, at the Law Offices of Julie A. Hlywa, we recognize that some couples seek a resolution that involves staying together.

As an experienced family law attorney, I have helped countless individuals work through the heartache and confusion of domestic challenges. My role is to provide the strong legal guidance you need while respecting your desire to find a path toward reconciliation.

How To Pause Or Dismiss Your Divorce Case

If you have already filed for divorce but have decided to attempt reconciliation, there are legal mechanisms in Michigan to handle this properly:

  • Dismissal of the action: If both parties agree to stop the divorce, we can file a “Stipulation and Order of Dismissal” to officially close the case.
  • Pausing the proceedings: In some instances, we can request a stay or a delay in the proceedings to give you and your spouse time to work with counselors or mediators without the pressure of court deadlines.
  • Post-judgment reconciliation: If a divorce has already been finalized but you choose to remarry your former spouse, we can advise you on how this impacts previous orders regarding property and support.

Connecting You With Professional Resources

Legal help is only one part of the equation. Julie A. Hlywa maintains a network of professional colleagues and organizations dedicated to helping families heal or find safety.

One of our primary partners is Turning Point, Inc., which offers:

  • 24/7 Crisis Support: Counselors available around the clock to guide you through emotional turmoil.
  • Mediation services: Skillful professionals who work to find resolutions to complex family problems.
  • Safety and advocacy: Resources for those dealing with domestic violence, sexual assault, or homelessness, including help obtaining personal protection orders (PPOs).

Regaining Control Of Your Life

Whether reconciliation leads to a stronger marriage or a more peaceful separation, the goal is for you to feel empowered and in control of your future. We are here to help you work through the legal hurdles so you can focus on your personal wellbeing and family stability.
