Divorce Process in Rome, NY
Our Rome Divorce Attorney Can Guide You Every Step of the Way
If you are considering divorce as an option for relief from unwanted circumstances and to pursue a better future for yourself and your family, then you may greatly benefit from the representation of a Rome, NY divorce attorney from the Law Office of Diane Martin-Grande. The process can often be confusing, and our firm can provide you with the information and the guidance that you need throughout this divorce process. The New York divorce process begins like many others with a summons or notification of divorce.
Upon successful filing, you will need to show one of seven applicable grounds for divorce in your marriage in a verified complaint document:
- Abandonment
- Adultery
- Cruel and/or inhumane treatment
- Imprisonment
- Irretrievable breakdown
- Judgment of separation
- Separation agreement
After the pleadings have been filed, the next step in the process is discovery and disclosure of information. This discovery process involves compiling information such as value of assets, bank accounts, pensions, and others. Before the trial, there are motion proceedings where issues such as child custody until the divorce is final, are addressed. The trial involves the judge making decisions on behalf of the separating parties that they were unable to decide before the trial. At the conclusion of the trial, the court will issue a decision that will address all issues of the divorce.
