In the heart of St. Louis, Missouri, Allison Walsh has filed for the dissolution of her marriage to Michael Gras, marking the end of a union that began in 2013. Though still living together at their shared residence on Maryland Avenue, both Walsh and Gras acknowledge their separation as of the filing date of September 11, 2024. Their marriage, which once saw the birth of two children, is now declared irretrievably broken by Walsh.
Walsh, represented by Maia Brodie of Brodie Law Firm, along with Elizabeth Carthen, seeks joint legal and physical custody of their children, proposing an arrangement where both parents continue to share responsibility. No prior custody litigation involving the children exists, and neither party claims custody rights beyond the scope of this case. Financially, both Walsh and Gras are noted to be self-sufficient, capable of supporting themselves and meeting the needs of their children without requiring spousal support. Walsh asks the court to equally divide their marital assets and debts, while leaving both parties to handle their respective attorney fees.
The petition underscores that no effort can preserve the marriage, as Walsh prays the court to officially dissolve it, apportion property, and finalize custody and child support terms.
