New York State allows couples to dissolve their marriage without assigning blame or proving fault. Eligibility for this process is a marriage that is irreconcilably broken (six-month separation) and there is no reasonable prospect of reconciliation. Benefits include a simplified divorce process, reduced conflict, faster resolution, and less cost. Residency requirements include one spouse living in New York for at least one year, a separation agreement or court-ordered separation, and a six-month waiting period. The process includes filing and serving divorce papers, response and counterclaims, settlement conference, trial, and judgment of divorce. Documents needed include summons and complaint, verification and affidavit, settlement agreement, and child support and custody documents. Filing fees range from $210 to $220. Important considerations include consulting an attorney, understanding no-fault divorce laws and procedures, financial and emotional preparation, and prioritizing child welfare. Resources include the New York State Unified Court System, New York State Bar Association, American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers, and National Center for State Courts.
