Family Law Services Throughout Queens County

A divorce is often one of the most emotionally overwhelming experiences in a person’s life, especially when children and a significant amount of assets are involved.

New York Divorce Laws

New York is a “no-fault” divorce state, which means a spouse can file for divorce without proving which party is at fault. Instead, one party must declare that there has been an irretrievable breakdown of the marriage for at least six months.

There are two main types of divorce: contested and uncontested divorce. While the former means both spouses cannot agree on one or more terms of the final divorce agreement, the latter means both spouses agree on all terms of the divorce.

Our legal team can sit down with you, listen to your concerns, and determine all available legal options to create a divorce strategy that addresses your needs and budget. We offer reduced fees for U.S. military members, police officers, firefighters, corrections officers, and New York State court officials and employees.
