New York Divorce Lawyer Discusses the Divorce Time Length

Question:

My wife and I have been married for six months and we both agree that we want a divorce. How long can this take?

Answer:

That depends on who does your paperwork and how quickly you can get it submitted. After all of the paperwork is completed, you still will need to wait for the Court to sign everything. I am assuming that you have little or nothing together given the short term for your marriage. A New York Divorce Lawyer should be able to complete an agreement in a week or two. Obtaining the Court’s signature on the documents could take 8-12 weeks, depending upon the Judge assigned.
