Divorce law has recently changed in New York. You no longer must establish grounds for divorce. New York is a now a "no-fault" state. This means that a couple instead declares an "irretrievable breakdown of the marriage" and can be divorced within six months thereafter. However, matters such as property issues, child custody and alimony still need to be addressed. While a divorce is often traumatic, an experienced and sympathetic divorce attorney can guide you through the process with the least amount of emotional and financial pain.
