Uncontested Divorce

New York Uncontested Divorce Lawyer

Uncontested Divorce: The Simpler Way to End Your Marriage

In an uncontested divorce, both parties have, by themselves and without help from the court, worked out the important issues involved in their divorce – which may include property division, child custody, spousal support, and child support matters. Anyone has the right to file a divorce complaint without an attorney, but you should be aware that this may result in unforeseen legal ramifications. Seeking the advice of a divorce lawyer is always a wise choice, especially when your future is at stake.

Spousal Support, Pension Plans & Property Division

If you are asking for spousal support or a share of your spouse’s pension plan, it would be wise to seek the advice of an attorney. It is not uncommon for spouses to contest divorce settlements that include alimony or pension plans and, at this point, the divorce would no longer be uncontested. Hiring a lawyer and/or mediator to aid in the negotiation could help you reach a more favorable settlement.

If the issue is not resolved until the actual trial, the judge may have to make this decision for you. For this reason, self-representation may not be the best choice. When you consult a New York divorce attorney and/or mediator before proceeding with your divorce, you can ensure that important issues are not overlooked and that both parties are getting what they want out of the divorce.

Are You Unable to Locate Your Spouse?

If you are unable to locate your spouse when seeking a divorce, there are specific procedures for this situation. This happens more often than you might think, especially when spouses have been separated for long periods of time. Consulting an attorney is recommended, particularly because of the unique procedures that must take place for the final judgment for divorce to be approved by the court.

    “We love Lois!”
    What a gem! Lois Brenner is the best out there by far... She got my husband and I right away. Listened, guided, let me cry, and never gave up on us during our mediation sessions. It was not easy but she made it possible. Even my husband liked her and agreed to mediate after we had lots of arguments. Thank you Lois. I already recommended you to my cardiologist. Have a happy, productive New Year.

    “Mediation Works!”
    Going through with our divorce was very difficult time for me and my ex husband. Finding the right lawyer was very confusing, frustrating and time consuming. I was very lucky to find Lois. She is professional and human at the same time. In a few sessions she answered all of our questions, gave us great advice and filled and filed all paperwork for us. Our divorce was finalized very quickly and thanks to Lois it was very smooth process. If my best friend would need a divorce lawyer I would recommend Lois without any reservations.!!! Christina C.

    “My husband and I are grateful :)”
    Everything you said about mediation was true. My husband and I really connected in a positive way working out the details of our divorce in mediation with you. The arguing was endless but we finally heard each other. You have a lot of patience. The property discussions made everything so emotional. You kept us focused and stopped us from rehashing the past. We tell everyone about you. Hopefully none of our friends will divorce but if they do we will tell them they need you.

    Lois is unlike any attorney I've worked with. Her understanding of the mental health side of my custody case was what ultimately made the difference. Absolutely exceptional.

    “Remarkable lawyer and lady!”
    Lois Brenner is a remarkable attorney and compassionate advocate for dads. She guided me when I was confused and didn't know what to do to get shared custody of my daughter. She encouraged me to stay strong and to fight, and she negotiated a much better custody arrangement than my previous lawyer. What great attorney. Thank you Ms. Brenner
