Headline News
The Bloomfield Hills law firm of Lipson, Neilson, Cole Seltzer & Garin, P.C. is holding a 25th anniversary celebration May 6 where it is giving 25 small businesses or entrepreneurs a half day of free legal and business counseling at Automation Alley in Troy.
Lipson Neilson was founded in 1985, at the cusp of an economic recovery beginning to develop 25 years ago. Since its modest beginnings with only three attorneys, Lipson Neilson has grown into a full-service law firm with four offices and 26 attorneys in two states.
To celebrate its silver anniversary, Lipson Neilson will be reaching out to entrepreneurs and emerging business owners who are charging down the same path that Lipson Neilson itself embarked upon 25 years ago.
“In 1985, after a period of some of the darkest days in Michigan’s economic history, the state began to come back with a vengeance," said the law firm's co-founder and managing partner Jeffrey Neilson. "We want to use our 25th anniversary to help inspire another rebirth for the companies that can most make a difference in our state’s economic future, the small business entrepreneurs.”
Lipson Neilson will host its free consulting event for 25 entrepreneurial companies selected from submissions to the firm. The event will be held in the Automation Alley atrium on May 6 from 8:30 a.m. to noon. Attorneys from the Lipson Neilson firm will cover a myriad of areas that most start-up and emerging businesses encounter, including company organization, structure, financing, and marketing. The firm will provide a full complement of sound advice to help entrepreneurial companies negotiate these difficult times and help them develop a plan for success in the Michigan economy.

Grounds for Divorce in Ohio - Sylkatis Law, LLC
A divorce in Ohio is filed when there is typically “fault” by one of the parties and party not at “fault” seeks to end the marriage. A court in Ohio may grant a divorce for the following reasons:
• Willful absence of the adverse party for one year
• Adultery
• Extreme cruelty
• Fraudulent contract
• Any gross neglect of duty
• Habitual drunkenness
• Imprisonment in a correctional institution at the time of filing the complaint
• Procurement of a divorce outside this state by the other party
Additionally, there are two “no-fault” basis for which a court may grant a divorce:
• When the parties have, without interruption for one year, lived separate and apart without cohabitation
• Incompatibility, unless denied by either party
However, whether or not the the court grants the divorce for “fault” or not, in Ohio the party not at “fault” will not get a bigger slice of the marital property.
