The Issues Regarding Grounds in a Disputed Divorce Action

In the state of New York, you need grounds for divorce that involve proving wrongdoing such as adultery, abandonment or cruel and inhuman treatment. If grounds cannot be established and one spouse wants to continue the marriage, a court will not sign off on the divorce. While some see the proof requirement as an obstacle, we see it as a useful tool to develop strategies toward finding closure in a divorce proceeding.

Experience and Advocacy Throughout the Entire Divorce Process

At Goldstein, Rubinton, Goldstein & DiFazio, P.C., we can handle all aspects of your divorce, bringing experience that most firms cannot provide. S. Russ DiFazio, one of our firm's partners, is a member of the American Academy of Matrimonial Attorneys, an organization composed of the top lawyers who practice in this area. From child support to maintenance and complex valuation of property, including the appraisal of advanced education degrees, licenses and professional practices and businesses, we will get you through a difficult process and protect your rights through every step. We also help with post-divorce matters such as modification of visitation and child support orders and issues related to same-sex marriages.

The Value of Finding Alternative Ways to Resolve Disputes

While we do not shy away from the courtroom when necessary to litigate a divorce, we see the value that negotiation, mediation and other forms of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) often provide. ADR can be especially effective when one spouse does not want a divorce. Effective negotiation can make the difference in both sides moving on with their lives.
