My Spouse And I Separated Fifteen Years Ago And Haven’t Seen Each Other In Over A Decade. Are We Considered Divorced In Queens?

October 23, 2015 by Marc Jacob

No, the only way a couple can become divorced in Queens is through the legal process and the issuance of a Judgment of Divorce by a judge.

There’s no route through long-term separation.

If you’ve decided to remarry or simply want to tie up loose ends, you’ll need to file for divorce.

The good news is that the process should be quite straightforward.

If you’ve had no contact with your spouse in that many years, odds are neither of you needs or wants anything from the other, so the case will likely be uncontested.

While a divorce lawyer isn’t required, working with an experienced divorce attorney can help ensure that the case proceeds promptly and properly, so you can be divorced without unnecessary expense or delays.

The attorneys at Zelenitz, Shapiro & D’Agostino can help you locate your spouse, ensure they are properly served with notice, and help you address whatever response they send.
