Where Life Meets Law: Family Matters Deserve Care
Experienced Family Law Attorneys Serving Clients from Detroit, Michigan
When life gets complicated, family law is often at the center of it. Maybe you’re facing divorce, trying to modify a custody agreement, or dealing with a tense financial dispute. Whatever the issue, the emotional weight is real, and you shouldn’t have to carry it alone. At Mellin Robinson, P.C., we serve clients from Detroit and surrounding areas through our office in Troy, Michigan, providing steady legal guidance when things feel uncertain.
What Does a Family Law Attorney Actually Handle?
Let’s clear this up—family law isn’t just divorce. It covers a wide range of deeply personal legal issues involving relationships, parenting, finances, and future planning. A skilled family law attorney isn’t there to escalate conflict. They’re there to bring structure, resolve, and fairness when things are messy.
At Mellin Robinson, we help clients with matters like:
-
Property and debt division
-
Paternity issues
-
Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements
We’ve seen it all—and we’ve helped clients find clarity in every scenario.
Helping Detroit Families Navigate Change with Confidence
We’re based in Troy, MI, but we work with many families from Detroit who need experienced and level-headed legal support. Whether you’re looking for a calm resolution or preparing for litigation, we help you stay focused on what matters most: your long-term peace of mind.
We don’t rush decisions. We don’t play games. We listen carefully and craft legal strategies that reflect your values, goals, and the realities of your situation. Every family is different, and your legal plan should be, too.
Child Custody, Support, and the Real-Life Impact
Custody battles can be some of the most emotionally charged parts of family law. We know that behind every court filing is a child’s routine, a parent’s concern, and a family trying to find new footing.
Our family law attorneys work to develop practical, balanced custody agreements that prioritize the child’s best interests and reflect real-life schedules. We also assist with:
-
Child support calculations and enforcement
-
Parenting time modifications
-
Sole and joint custody agreements
-
Emergency custody petitions
-
Post-divorce adjustments
We handle these matters with empathy, but we never lose sight of the legal precision required to protect your rights.

Post-Judgment Modifications: Because Life Changes
Here’s the thing—court orders are written at one moment in time. But life doesn’t stand still. If you need to change a custody schedule, increase or reduce support, or enforce a previous agreement, we can help you pursue a modification through the court.
We’ve helped many clients from Detroit adjust their legal orders to reflect new jobs, relocations, parenting challenges, and financial shifts. When change is necessary, we’ll help you do it right.
Your First Meeting Is About Understanding—Not Pressure
A lot of people hesitate to call a lawyer because they think they’ll be pushed into filing or pressured to act fast. That’s not how we work. Our first meeting is about listening. We want to understand your situation, your concerns, and your goals, then give you clear next steps.
At Mellin Robinson, P.C., we’re proud to serve clients from Detroit through our Troy, MI office. Whether you need help with divorce, custody, support, or any other family law issue, we’re ready when you are.
