Online divorce in New York

For New York couples, the online part of an online divorce is the preparation: gathering your financial picture, completing the forms accurately, and assembling the packet.

Divorce questions from New York filers

Which court handles my divorce in New York?
Divorce in New York is generally handled by the Supreme Court (New York’s trial court) for your county. The clerk's office is your best source for filing fees, e-filing rules, and hearing scheduling — the course shows you how to find that contact information directly.
Can I get a no-fault divorce in New York if we agree on everything?
Yes — that's exactly what an uncontested no-fault divorce is. You state the marriage is irretrievably broken, you and your spouse sign a settlement agreement, and the Supreme Court (New York’s trial court) finalizes it. Agreement is what keeps it simple and cheap.
Do I need a lawyer to file in New York?
Not for a straightforward uncontested case — filing pro se is legal in New York. But if you disagree about custody or property, there's a business or pension involved, or there's any history of abuse, talk to a licensed New York family law attorney.
