What Is A No-Fault Divorce?
In 2010, New York stopped requiring fault grounds for a divorce. You can now cite “irretrievable breakdown” as the reason for a divorce, thereby assigning blame to neither of the parties involved.
At the law office of Warren Welch Esq., LLC, attorney and staff are familiar with this new legislation and can help you use this new option to dissolve your marriage. For more information and experienced family law counsel, contact today at 585-200-5437 to schedule your consultation.
