The Unique Laws of the Empire State
Unlike other states with ‘no fault’ divorces, New York’s divorce laws require grounds for divorce. It takes experience to navigate New York’s particular legal mandates in order to establish fault grounds.
The experience and approach to law provided by Arroyo Copland & Associates will help you identify the options and opportunities required to achieve your family law goals. Whether you are seeking to build your family through an adoption, or seeking to explore an opportunity to start life anew, we are prepared to help.
