FAQs

How much does a divorce cost?

The cost of a divorce will vary depending on your circumstances. For example, the type of assets you own, whether children are involved and the length of your marriage can all affect your divorce expenses. At my firm, I offer hourly rates and will work hard to get your matter resolved as quickly as possible. For uncontested divorces, I offer a flat fee based on the scope of the case.

How long does the divorce process take?

Every divorce is different, which means the length of the process will vary for each case. Uncontested divorces can be settled in a matter of weeks, whereas contested divorces may take months or years to settle, depending on the complexity of issues and whether spouses are able to agree. To support my clients in finding fair and timely resolutions, I work closely with them to identify their specific needs and explore all available options for negotiating an out-of-court settlement.

What are the disadvantages to taking your divorce to court?

If you and your soon-to-be ex are unable to negotiate an agreement, your case will then go to trial and a judge will determine the final terms of your divorce decree. An important factor that divorcing couples must consider is that judges do not know you, they do not have a deep understanding of your situation and they will be forced to make a decision without having all of the information. By keeping it out of the courthouse, you remain in control over your own destiny.

How is marital property divided in New York?

New York is an equitable division state, which means that marital property is divided in a manner that is fair but not necessarily equal. The courts take many factors into consideration when determining how to allocate assets, including the length of your marriage, financial status of both spouses, alimony or spousal support needs, child custody arrangements and child support needs.

How do I begin the divorce process?

As a New York family law attorney with more than 40 years of experience, I understand the immense pressure you are facing. You know that decisions need to be made, but you have no idea where to begin. To effectively support your needs, I will work diligently to alleviate your stresses throughout the process by collaborating closely with you in developing a strategy that meets your goals and assists you in making informed decisions about your future.
