Pick the situation that fits you →
Built for you if you live in New York, have no children under 21 from the marriage, and want it handled now — with or without your spouse's cooperation.
Like every New York divorce, an uncontested case is filed at the appropriate court for its county. For Brooklyn that is the Supreme Court for Kings County (Brooklyn), through the County Clerk’s office. We prepare your full packet personalized to your county; you file it at the courthouse yourself.
New York’s court filing fees for a DIY uncontested divorce total about $335 — a $210 index number fee plus $125 when the Request for Judicial Intervention and Note of Issue are filed. If your spouse defaults (won’t sign), you wait 40 days from the date they were served before filing the remaining papers. Most uncontested cases run about 3–6 months: New York has no fixed waiting period, but the court won’t finalize until every issue is resolved.
$99. Fifteen minutes. No court. No lawyer meeting.
A real, finished divorce packet in your inbox.
Most online divorce services only work if both people cooperate. New York law has a path — called "default" — for when your spouse refuses, disappears, or just won't deal with it. We prepare those papers too, including the Affidavit of Service. You don't need their permission to move on.
