Divorce and legal separation

Divorces are rarely easy. In New York, the grounds for divorce are largely fault-based. They include—

Cruel and inhuman treatment
Adultery
Abandonment of at least one year

Confinement of one spouse in a correctional or mental health facility of three or more consecutive years
No-fault grounds for divorce involve a legal separation for at least one year. Even these divorces, however, can be fraught with hostility and when there are children involved, parents often become overly aggressive in protecting their children’s best interests. It is important to retain the services of an experienced matrimonial law attorney to ensure that your case stays on track and your rights are protected from filing to finalization.

Civil litigation and transactions

When families change, many other circumstances change with them. For instance, you may need to update your estate plan or sell the house you once held with your ex.  At the law firm of Daniel J. Sperrazza, Esq., I can help you with the consequences of your family change.  I have experience in general civil matters, including—

  • Estate planning
  • Tax planning
  • Real estate transactions

Clients feel comfortable coming to me with their family law issues because they know I will help them with the other legal issues that arise from their domestic matters.  You will not have to look for a new attorney and establish another relationship—I am experienced in most legal areas that affect New Yorkers.
