Michael Polsky

Chicago, IL: (Jun-04-07) Maya Polsky, wife of energy magnate Michael Polsky for 31 years, received a divorce settlement in which a Cook County judge awarded her $176 million in cash and assets. The settlement amount represented half of the couple's estate. On June 3, 2007, the judge amended the figure to nearly $184 million because previously omitted assets increased the overall value of the estate. In her suit, Maya Polsky claimed that she was her husband's confidant and should be considered a partner in his success. The American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers claimed that the $184 million divorce settlement is the biggest award nationally. Michael Polsky stated that he would appeal the ruling.
