New York offers two options for couples who wish to end their marriages: no-fault divorce and at-fault divorce.
- No-fault Divorce
- Irreconcilable differences
- Incompatibility & irremediable breakdown of the marriage for six months.
It does not require proof of fault of either party. New York State signed no-fault divorce into law in August 2010.
- At-fault divorce
One party alleges & proves:- Adultery
- Inflicted cruel or inhuman treatment
- Abandoned the party
- Has been in prison for three years
- Or the couple has been legally separated for over a year
The claims can either be contested or uncontested by the alleged erring spouses. If they choose to contest the allegations, the process can end up in a court trial involving draining exchanges of charges and counter-charges.
Even in an uncontested divorce, however, there are important issues involved—including child custody and visitation, child support, the division of assets, and alimony or spousal support. Learn if your divorce qualifies as uncontested.
