What "uncontested" means in New York

An uncontested divorce in NY is one where you and your spouse don't need a judge to fight it out over the terms. It's the fastest, lowest-cost path — and crucially, New York still lets you proceed on the uncontested track even if your spouse won't sign. We prepare the correct packet for either situation, personalized to your county.

The edge over the bare-bones listings

Anyone can hand you a blank form. We prepare the full packet and cover the cases that actually come up:

Serving all five New York City boroughs — the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island.

They won't sign
New York lets you move forward even when your spouse refuses to cooperate. We prepare the papers for the non-signing path.
Same-sex divorce
Fully supported. Your packet is prepared the same way, with the correct New York forms for your marriage.
Remote online notarization
No printer-and-courthouse scramble — handle notarization remotely where your documents allow it.
Name change included
Restoring a prior name as part of the divorce? We build that request into the paperwork.

Doing it yourself

Can you file an uncontested divorce in New York yourself?

For many couples, yes. New York's uncontested process was built to be navigated without a lawyer, and the courts publish the forms and instructions for self-represented filers. The hard part usually isn't the law — it's getting the right forms, filling every box correctly, and filing them in the right order so the clerk doesn't bounce them back.

That's the gap a document-preparation service fills. We don't represent you or give legal advice — we prepare your New York court packet (the real forms, completed for your situation) and give you plain-language instructions for filing it yourself. Whether or not your spouse will sign, there's a path — and you stay in control of your own case.

  • You or your spouse meet New York's residency requirement.
  • The divorce is uncontested — you both agree (or expect to) on how things are divided, with no active court fight.
  • You have no shared children under 21 — the situation our DIY packets are built for.
  • You want the paperwork done correctly without paying for billable hours.

Not sure it fits? It takes about a minute to find out, and the result points you to the right packet.

One honest note: a do-it-yourself packet is the right tool when a case is genuinely uncontested and simple. If your divorce is contested, or you share children under 21, those cases need extra steps a DIY packet isn't built for — and it's worth speaking with an attorney before you file.
