Law Firm News

An international law firm says it will bring 187 jobs to a business services center it's establishing in southwest Ohio.

Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr LLP made the announcement Monday at the Miami Valley Research Park in Kettering. The law firm with headquarters in Washington, D.C., and Boston has 1,000 lawyers in 12 cities in the United States, Europe and Asia.

The company will renovate a building to house current and new staff in finance, human resources, information technology and other areas to support the company's offices worldwide.

A grant application says the site is expected to have an annual payroll of $9.1 million.

The city anticipates about $103,000 in annual income tax revenue in the half of a 10-year-lease and $206,000 thereafter.

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.
