What’s The Advantage In Filing For Divorce On “Irretrievable Breakdown” Grounds?

January 23, 2014 by Marc Jacob

“Irretrievable breakdown” is New York’s version of “irreconcilable differences,” and allows for one spouse to unilaterally receive a no-fault divorce provided that;

a) Your relationship with your spouse has broken down irretrievably,

b) The relationship has been irretrievably broken for a period of at least six months,

c) One spouse states this under oath, d) and that the various issues related to the divorce – financial issues, distribution of marital property, spousal support, child support, attorney’s fees and other expenses related to the divorce, and visitation agreements for any children – are addressed.

For many people, this is the easiest and cleanest way to obtain a divorce – and it doesn’t require either party to prove fault.

The attorneys at Zelenitz, Shapiro & D’Agostino can help you decide which approach is best. Just call 718-523-1111 and talk to a lawyer for free.
