A marriage that began with promise in Las Vegas on June 14, 2018, has reached its legal end as Brittany Brasher files for dissolution of marriage against Benjamin Brasher in Cook County, Illinois. Filed on November 13, 2024, through her attorney Steven A. Marshall of Marshall Law, LLC, Brittany cites irreconcilable differences leading to the irretrievable breakdown of the marriage. The petition emphasizes that reconciliation is neither practical nor beneficial.
The couple, both 28 and residing in Oak Lawn, Illinois, have no children together. Brittany’s petition outlines her claims for an equitable share of marital assets and liabilities. While she asserts her rights to certain non-marital property, she also requests her fair portion of the marital estate accumulated during the union. Additionally, she seeks maintenance from Benjamin and court protection to ensure neither party diminishes shared or personal assets during the proceedings.
The filing describes Benjamin’s individual personal debts as solely his responsibility, while also requesting the court to fairly divide their marital debts. The plea, comprehensive and methodical, reveals Brittany’s intent to secure her financial independence while concluding this chapter. The absence of any prior legal filings between the parties or in other jurisdictions reflects Brittany’s determination to pursue closure solely through this court.
