Asked by a user in Jamaica, NY - almost 2 years ago.

Yes, if you both agree on the grounds for divorce; child custody, visitation and child support; and the division of marital assets and liabilities you can get an uncontested divorce. Our law office offers free uncontested divorce consultations.

Adultry in new york state

Asked by a user in Buffalo, NY - over 1 year ago.

The fault grounds of adultery or the fact that one party committed adultery does not effect the equitable distribution in a divorce. None of this is effected by the n0-fault divorce law either. Many lawyers offer free consultations. Feel free to get in touch to discuss your situation further. This is not legal advice and does not create an attorney-client relationship.

Can I be made responsible for another person's existing debt if I marry them?

Asked by a user in Scarsdale, NY - almost 2 years ago.

A pre-nuptial agreement would be a good idea. With a prenup you can retain control over how marital assets and liabilities are dealt with, among other things.

Legal Separation is already executed... Can one party go file for No Fault?

Asked by a user in Garden City, NY - almost 2 years ago.

Yes, one party can file under no-fault regardless of the separation agreement. The legal separation agreement no longer needs to be for a year because of the new no-fault law.

Wife locked me out out of house and destroyed all my belongings, and I mean everything. Can I sue her to recover costs?

Asked by a user in Brooklyn, NY - almost 2 years ago.

I agree that suing your wife for destroying your belongings may not be worth it. That would depend on the value of your property, whether your wife has the money to pay a judgment against her and whether you could afford an attorney to sue her. Get a protective order and a divorce (if you want to end the marriage). Many lawyers offer free consultations (like us). Feel free to get in touch.

In New york State, do I have any rights legally knowing my spouse broke up the family do to infidelity?

Asked by a user in Bohemia, NY - almost 2 years ago.

Although New York is still a fault state in terms of divorce, fault has little bearing on equitable distribution of assets. The fault provides grounds for divorce. In other words, the court will allow you to get divorced because you have proven fault. Otherwise, you would have to stay in the marriage.
