Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a divorce take in New York?
An uncontested divorce in New York typically takes 3-6 months from filing. Contested divorces can take 1-3 years or longer depending on the complexity of issues like property division, custody, and support. Our attorneys work to resolve cases efficiently while protecting your interests.
How is child custody determined in New York?
New York courts determine custody based on the 'best interests of the child,' considering factors like each parent's ability to provide care, the child's relationship with each parent, stability of home environments, and the child's preferences if they're old enough. Our attorneys advocate strongly for your parental rights.
Is New York a community property state?
No, New York is an equitable distribution state, not a community property state. This means marital property is divided fairly, but not necessarily equally. Courts consider factors like the length of marriage, each spouse's income and property, and contributions to the marriage.
