FILE YOUR MOTION TODAY

By CPG

With the current economy in Michigan and the constant layoffs and downsizing it is important to remember Michigan's law against retroactive modification of support. In Michigan, if you file a motion to modify spousal or child support and you receive a reduction it only goes back to the date in which you filed your motion.

To sum it up if you are laid-off you should file a motion to change the next day in order to "lock in" the change date.
