FAQ
-
How does someone start an action for divorce or separation in the State of New York? Do I need to say why I want a divorce or is just wanting one enough?
New York is a no-fault state, which means you simply have to file a separation agreement or file a Summons with Notice for Divorce. That also means the fault grounds for a divorce in the State of New York are now as simple as irreconcilable differences.
-
If I file for divorce, how do I go about obtaining child support, alimony, and other financial compensation? Am I entitled to financial support during the divorce process, before the divorce is finalized?
Yes you are entitled to financial support during the process, before it is finalized. When you file an action for divorce, you must state the financial as well as custodial relief that you are pursuing to be awarded by the Court. Financial support pending during the divorce proceeding is referred to as "pendente lite" or interim relief. This type of relief can be acquired through an application process requesting the Court for child and spousal support, payments to third parties and access to the children. It also provides a means for allocating each party's contribution to the family’s overall financial needs.
