In a recent legal filing on September 12, 2023, Dustin E. Dorlac, a Missouri resident, initiated proceedings to dissolve his marriage to Sarah L. Dorlac. Both parties have been residents of the state and the County of St. Louis, where they currently reside. The couple, who wed in June 2006 in Chicago, has decided to part ways after separating in January 2023. Their union has produced one child, who currently shares joint physical custody with both parents.

Dustin E. Dorlac is represented by a legal team consisting of attorneys Mark W. Haefner, Elizabeth P. Tadrick, Olivia N. Mitchell, and Haefner Law Office LLC. The petitioner has asserted that joint physical and legal custody is in the best interest of their minor child. Furthermore, both Dustin and Sarah are deemed capable of providing financial support for their child while in their respective care.

The filing also acknowledges the existence of marital property and debts, with the petitioner requesting a fair and equitable division of these assets. The couple also possesses separate property. The petitioner contends that the marriage is irretrievably broken, and thus, seeks dissolution by the court.

Dustin E. Dorlac has asked the court to dissolve the marriage, grant joint physical and legal custody, establish child support arrangements, and justly distribute marital property and debts. The court will determine the outcome of these requests based on the unique circumstances of the case.
