In the divorce petition filed on August 7, 2024, in Jackson County, Missouri, Andrea Love, represented by Wyatt Z. Roberts of Roberts Law Office, LLC, seeks to dissolve her marriage to William Love, which began on September 19, 2010, in Overland Park, Kansas. The couple, now separated since June 1, 2024, shares custody of their minor children and agrees that joint legal and physical custody would be in their best interest. Andrea’s petition reflects the fractured nature of modern marriage, where the dissolution is not merely a legal process but a reflection of deeper systemic issues.

Andrea Love asserts that the marriage is irretrievably broken, with no reasonable chance of repair. The petition requests an equitable division of marital property and debts, along with the approval of a proposed parenting plan that prioritizes the welfare of the children. Both parties are financially independent, and neither seeks spousal maintenance. However, Andrea reserves the right to request attorney’s fees should William unreasonably prolong the litigation. The petition emphasizes the need for a fair resolution that respects the autonomy of both parties while acknowledging the challenges of co-parenting in a fractured relationship. The case underscores the often-overlooked social and economic complexities that permeate the dissolution of marriage, with each step reflecting the intricate interplay between personal agency and institutional structures.
