New York Same Sex Divorce Lawyer

Although New York law unfortunately does not yet recognize same sex (gay or lesbian) marriage, recently New York courts have begun to decide same sex divorce cases.

If you and your partner were legally married or validly entered into a same sex civil union or domestic partnership in another state and you currently reside in New York State, you can now get divorced in New York.

The Law Office of David Centeno, PLLC has successfully handled many New York same sex divorce cases.  Although similar to regular divorce, there are many subtle aspects to same sex divorce that we are aware of and can help you with.

We help many gay and lesbian partners with their New York same sex divorce or dissolution of same sex domestic partnership or civil union.  You too, just like any straight client, deserve protection of your property, support and custody rights.

Our objective when handling a same sex divorce is to make sure that you thoroughly understand your rights and obligations as you transition from marriage through divorce.

Many same sex divorces, like any divorces, are settled through negotiation and compromise.  We offer divorce mediation, negotiation and uncontested divorces, as well as contested or litigated divorces.
