When a couple has multiple venues available for filing, we encourage people to talk to attorneys in both states.
Because divorce law is decided at the state level, it may be more advantageous to you to work through the courts in your home state.
Conversely, New York’s divorce law may offer opportunities to you that your home state doesn’t, and working with an experienced divorce attorney in Rochester may result in a better settlement for you.
When you speak to attorneys, ask questions relevant to your situation. If you have kids, which state tends to award more balanced custody and visitation?
If you wish to receive alimony, which state usually awards higher spousal maintenance awards? Make a list of topics and call around.
The attorneys at Friedman & Ranzenhofer can answer your questions about divorce in Rochester.
