Is New York a Community Property State?
No, New York is not a community property state. It is an equitable distribution state.
In New York, property and debt are divided equitably. The judge will decide how to divide property and marital debt using the state's equitable distribution laws.
How property is divided in a New York divorce:
- Each spouse possesses the income they earn during the marriage.
- Each spouse has the right to manage the property in their name.
- Couples can often reach an agreement on property division that is agreeable to both spouses.
- Courts encourage couples to resolve differences and work together somewhat to decide how to split assets and liabilities.

I am extremely thankful for having received the best representation from my attorney Kristen D. Farris for a temporary order of protection case against my soon to be ex-husband. Everything went so smooth with her amazing expertise and professionalism. In the court, she took charge right away and everything was just so well. I was so relieved! The outcome of the case was perfect and the case settled without any issues. I had no chance to stress! Finally, the office staff was so friendly and the communication, which was mostly through e-mail, was perfect. I am looking forward to working with Kristen with the next steps of getting a divorce. God answered my prayer when I asked for a great attorney :) I was so nervous but thankfully everything went so well!!!
