Laura Rommel has officially filed for the dissolution of her marriage to John Rommel in St. Louis County’s 21st Judicial Circuit, citing the irretrievable breakdown of their union. The couple, married on July 23, 2022, in Maryland Heights, separated in May 2024. Laura is represented by Zachary T. Hunsinger of Hunsinger Law Group, LLC. Filed on September 18, 2024, the petition underscores the couple’s mutual ability to support themselves, as Laura requests the court bar either party from claiming maintenance. No children were born during the marriage, and neither party is seeking custody or visitation arrangements.
Central to the petition is the equitable division of the couple’s marital assets. Laura is asking for a fair share of both marital and non-marital property, with the court to assign her non-marital property as her exclusive ownership. Furthermore, Laura details a strained financial dynamic, noting that John removed her access to shared financial documents, complicating her ability to fully assess their financial situation.
Laura’s petition makes it clear that both parties are expected to bear their own legal costs and attorney’s fees, requesting that the court deny any claims for maintenance from either side. The breakdown of the relationship appears final, with Laura asking for a clean division of property and a swift resolution to their separation.
