How do I get a divorce without income ?
3 attorney answers
If you have assets or children, you should hire a lawyer before doing anything so that your rights can be protected. If you have neither assets nor children, you could try to do the paperwork yourself. Go to New York Court's website to find a list of the paperwork needed.
The best thing to do is to wait until you have the funds to be properly represented.

Find a law school clinic if the divorce is contested, or file your papers if you and the spouse are in agreement on all ancillary issues.
Please do not message me here on Avvo. The original question does not accompany your message so I have no idea what you are talking about. Simply respond as a comment under the question and I'll see the comment and know which question your comment applies to. Always remember I am not establishing an attorney/client relationship with you here and I am not giving you legal advice for your case. I am only providing an education in the workings of the law using your fact pattern as an example and in no way am I helping you prepare your case for court. Further, I do not know your case. If you retained a lawyer, do not use Avvo to second guess your lawyer. Your lawyer knows your facts.
