Exceptional Representation
I am incredibly grateful to Wealthy Street Law Firm and mainly, Jonathan Browning, who was the lead attorney, for their exceptional representation in my recent custody case. From the moment I reached out to them, their team displayed a high level of professionalism, compassion, and dedication. They took the time to understand the nuances of my case, providing me with clear guidance and support every step of the way. Their expertise and strategic approach in the courtroom were impressive, and I am pleased to share that the decision was favorable on my behalf. The attorneys at Wealthy Street Law Firm are not only highly skilled but also genuinely care about their clients' well-being and outcomes. I highly recommend Wealthy Street Law Firm to anyone in need of legal assistance. They have made a significant positive impact on my life, and I cannot thank them enough for their outstanding work.

Extremely pleased with Wayne's service
Found Wayne through a friend’s referral and are extremely pleased with his service regarding parenting time. He’s taken a burden off my shoulders with his clear, to-the-point communication and ability to perform very well in court. He is knowledgeable, well-spoken, and can easily strategize to make you feel confident with next steps. We’ve spent years wasted at another firm and will be using his services going forward. I highly recommend Wayne and his team to advocate for you and your family!

Wayne Crowe Law Has My Back
Augustine did awesome for me! Had quite a sticky custody case, and he pulled through on his word plus some. Lauren and Nicole were so patient with me and the million questions I had; they were comforting and reassuring. The way this office worked with me on payments, my questions, concerns, etc., was exceptional. I’d recommend this office to anyone. Thank you for having my back, Wayne Crowe Law. You guys rock. If I ever need a lawyer again, you bet this is where I’m coming.

Case dismissed in 20 minutes

He Had It Dismissed.
I retained Wayne Crowe 4 days before my court hearing in a guardianship matter for my daughter. He had it dismissed. I'm very satisfied with him and his team's work. I'd 100% recommend Wayne to anyone that needs it.
Elizabeth Zolen
The verdict went in our favor!
Wayne and his team took my case with less than a week to prepare. When other law firms were going to charge me ridiculous amounts, his firm didn’t try to take advantage. I live in Illinois and needed a lawyer in Michigan for a child custody case. His team and he are amazing. The verdict went in our favor. I’m forever grateful to everyone that helped us. Thank you, and if ever I need another lawyer in Michigan, I KNOW WHERE TO COME!!!!

Highly Recommend This Lawyer
Hello,
I would like to start with 17 years ago I had children that went missing, and then suddenly one day there’s a letter from a Michigan courthouse where they had located the children. The case was very complex, and I wasn’t even sure what to do. In the course of the case, the mother had passed away adding to the complexity. Mr. Wayne Crowe took the case and has stayed by my side through the entire process. He is able to answer any questions that arise either through a phone call/text or email. He has never put any pressure on me to sign any contracts or to do anything I don’t want to do. I would highly recommend this lawyer in the state of Michigan for anybody that’s feeling defeated and needing a good lawyer that’s willing to hear them out. He put things back on the right track again. Thank you, Mr. Wayne Crowe for doing an excellent job and helping in a time when I needed it most.

Things Going Quite Well
Wayne Crowe is representing me in an ongoing child custody matter, and as of now, things are going quite well. Our first court date seems to have gone in my favor.
Haylee Morgan
Wayne has been an awesome asset
Wayne has been an awesome asset in my current custody case. He’s the third attorney I’ve had involved in this, but the first to make any legitimate progress towards getting back custody and resolving my issues. Jaquelyn has been a great help in getting all the details of my case organized, as Wayne took on this case in the middle of a very intense custody battle. Wayne is very well spoken and has substantial knowledge of Michigan family law. I was very grateful for his representation during our hearings.
David Doneruse
Above and Beyond My Expectations
Wayne took on my custody case last minute after another attorney really screwed me over. With time NOT on his side, he went above and beyond my expectations! Thank you so much for being kind, caring, and communicative throughout this whole process. You're an awesome attorney, Wayne!
Samantha Reinhard
Wayne helped me win my case
My back was up against the wall and I had lost all hope of seeing my child. The cards were not in my favor at all and Wayne was able to help me win my case and I will never go searching for another attorney, he is truly amazing!
Kevin Cranmer
Reunited with His Son
There are no words to adequately express my gratitude for the services I received during the course of my complicated custody hearing. The entire team guided me through an extremely difficult period in my life. Their caring for me as a person as well as a client was always evident throughout the process. Each and every member of this remarkable team remained professional, competent, and effective to the very end. I have to extend extra thanks to Wayne Crowe for his exceptional expertise; having him on my side gave me peace of mind that I will always be grateful for... I won my case, I'm a service member living out of state that is being reunited with his son.

Custody is determined by considering the best interests of the child. Factors may include the child's age, health, emotional ties with parents, parents' ability to care for the child, and the child's ties to home, school, and community. Courts aim to facilitate stability and continuity for the child.
What if a parent violates the custody order?
If a parent violates a custody order, the other parent can contact the court to report the violation. The court may enforce the order through legal means, including sanctions or modifications of custody arrangements. It is best to document violations and seek legal counsel to address these issues properly.
What are parenting plans?
Parenting plans are detailed agreements between parents outlining how they will raise their child post-separation. This includes scheduling, decision-making, and dispute resolution methods. A well-crafted plan helps ensure both parents are engaged in the child's life and can help minimize conflicts.
Can custody arrangements be changed?
Yes, custody arrangements can be modified if there is a significant change in circumstances that affects the child's best interests. A formal request to modify the custody order must be filed with the court, which will assess the proposed changes and decide if they benefit the child.
