Assuming you meet the two-year residency requirement, you can file for divorce in Queens, and the court here will have jurisdiction over your action.
Often when a couple is estranged and living far apart, matters of property and financial entanglements are long resolved, and both can agree to dissolve marriage without too much wrangling.
On the other hand, a spouse often leaves because of abuse in the home or other issues that put their safety at risk, and filing for divorce can be daunting.
New York has protections in place that can help ensure that your address and other personal information stay private.
Whatever your situation, the attorneys at Zelenitz, Shapiro & D’Agostino can help you end your marriage with a minimum of concern and expense.
