New York’s No-fault Divorce law works as promised.  At least in uncontested matters.

We filed an uncontested no-fault divorce a few days after New York’s no-fault divorce law went into effect. We are  pleased to say that the process went rather smoothly, and that we recently received our client’s judgment of divorce.  Gone are the days when couples would have to “stretch” the truth in order to qualify under New York’s stringent grounds in order to get a divorce.  Although the other issues may be litigated just as often these days; at least a grounds trial won’t be necessary if both parties can at least agree that they no longer desire to be married to one another.  So, the legislative intent has been accomplished in allowing New Yorkers a less culpable grounds upon which a divorce may be granted.

If you are considering getting divorced and all of the publicity about this new law has you confused; Feel free to call us at (516) 858-2620 !
