Frequently Asked Questions

The timeline for divorce in New York varies depending on whether it is contested or uncontested. An uncontested divorce where both parties agree on all terms can be finalized in as little as a few months. Contested divorces involving disputes over property, custody, or support typically take longer, often six months to over a year depending on the complexity of the issues and court schedules.
New York recognizes both fault-based and no-fault grounds for divorce. The most common is no-fault divorce based on an irretrievable breakdown of the marriage for at least six months. Fault-based grounds include cruel and inhuman treatment, abandonment, imprisonment, and adultery. Our attorneys can help you determine which grounds are most appropriate for your situation.
New York follows the principle of equitable distribution, meaning marital property is divided fairly but not necessarily equally. The court considers factors such as the length of the marriage, each spouse's income and earning capacity, contributions to marital property, and the needs of custodial parents. Separate property owned before marriage or received as a gift or inheritance typically remains with the original owner.
New York courts make custody decisions based on the best interests of the child. Factors include each parent's ability to provide a stable home environment, the child's relationship with each parent, each parent's physical and mental health, any history of domestic violence, and the child's preferences if they are of sufficient age and maturity. The court aims to maintain continuity and stability in the child's life whenever possible.
While it is possible to file an uncontested divorce without an attorney, having legal representation ensures your rights are protected and all paperwork is properly completed. An experienced attorney can review settlement agreements to confirm they are fair and legally sound, help avoid costly mistakes, and ensure all required documents are filed correctly. Even amicable divorces involve important legal and financial decisions that benefit from professional guidance.
