I wanted to share a success story with you:
A few months ago, several couples came to my office seeking to divorce their spouses. At the time, New York had not yet enacted the No Fault divorce and so the best option was to file a Separation Agreement, wait a year, and then submit legal documents to the Court for a Judgment of Divorce. Recently, we were able to expedite their divorces and in quickly prepare and file the divorce proceeding pursuant to the new statute. Now, we are waiting for the Judge to sign-off. So, if you already filed a separation agreement and do not want to wait the full year to file for divorce, you no longer need to wait, and if you know of any couples who are able to agree on all of the issues and want to divorce quickly, that is possible as well.
