What is a Contested Divorce?

A contested divorce occurs when spouses cannot agree on one or more things, such as property division, child custody, or spousal support. These disagreements can lead to prolonged negotiations, court hearings, and emotional stress. The team at WinIt Law is here to help you advocate for things you want and need.

Divorce can be one of the most challenging experiences in life, especially when the process becomes contested. At WinIt Law, we understand that navigating a contested divorce in New York requires not only legal expertise but also compassion and support.

considered when:

Child Custody
and Support

Determining the best arrangement for your children is paramount. We will advocate for your parental rights and strive for a solution that prioritizes your children's well-being.

Filing the Petition

One spouse files a divorce petition, outlining the grounds for divorce and the issues to be resolved.

Response

The other spouse has the opportunity to respond, which may lead to negotiations or court hearings.

Discovery
