New York divorce law can be complex. Here is a general overview of how we guide clients from the first consultation through final judgment.
We review your marital history, assets, children’s situation, and goals. We explain your options — including whether uncontested divorce may be available to save time and money.
We prepare and file the legal paperwork to formally initiate the divorce in Supreme Court of the relevant county.
We can seek emergency court orders for temporary custody, support, or exclusive use of the marital home while the case is pending.
Both parties exchange financial information. We analyze statements, appraisals, tax returns, and business valuations to build a clear picture of marital assets.
Most divorces settle out of court. We negotiate aggressively on your behalf to reach a fair and durable settlement agreement.
If settlement fails, we present your case to a judge. Our thorough preparation and courtroom experience give you the strongest possible representation.
The court issues the divorce judgment. We ensure all terms — custody, support, property division — are clearly enforceable.
Before entering any negotiation or accepting a settlement, understand what New York’s CSSA formula is likely to produce in your case. Our free interactive calculator covers child support, spousal maintenance, and add-on expenses — no email required.
