Our office provides New York uncontested divorce and no fault divorce in all New York counties.  More information on those services is provided below.

Uncontested Divorce

New York divorce services for uncontested divorce and no fault divorce are provided by our office through a separate dedicated website.  That site, www.NYDivorceNow.com, is available for use by any individual who can file for divorce in any county in New York State. 

The divorce process can be streamlined for clients who are able to work amicably with their spouse to arrive at a settlement solution.  This service is not appropriate for couples who cannot work together to reach a settlement.

When using our Online Divorce website, you are retaining the services of the attorneys in our office and we will not represent both parties.  Only one spouse can retain our services.

Our online service should not be confused with "fill in the forms" sites that are run by non-attorneys or paralegals.  When you use our site, you can be assured that an attorney is responsible for properly completing and filing your papers, responding to all of your questions and handling all aspects of your case.

Interstate Services

New York divorce services are provided by our office for any individual who is subject to the authority of a New York Court.  Given the mobile nature of our society, many of the matters that we handle involve issues of interstate support, custody and/or divorce.  In those matters, we represent litigants who reside in New York and those who reside outside of the state.

Many of our clients seeking family law services in New York are either residents of another state or have spouses who are residents of another state.  In those cases, when New York State has jurisdiction, our office can provide assistance.

Mediation

A New York divorce can be obtained after mediation services have been utilized.  Jean Mahserjian is trained in divorce mediation, but does not offer direct mediation services.  Rather, our office works closely with area mediators and we refer many cases to mediation for resolution.  To review information on our mediation referrals, go to our Divorce Mediation page.
