If I File In Rochester On Grounds Of Adultery, Will The Settlement Figure Be Higher?

When you file for divorce on grounds like adultery in Rochester, your final settlement figure is unlikely to be higher, but the costs related to your case almost certainly will be.

To prove adultery, you’ll be required to build a legal case against your spouse, which means time and money on the part of your attorney and others.

Since there’s no particular financial payoff you can expect for doing so, it’s much easier to file on Irretrievable Breakdown grounds, then show that your spouse misused funds in the course of adultery.

Your spouse will be required to repay the marriage for misused funds in either case, but under Irretrievable Breakdown, your costs – in time and money – are lower.

The attorneys at Friedman & Ranzenhofer understand how important it is to hold the guilty party responsible for breaking a marriage.
