What is the name of your state? NY
My wife and i have been legally separated for 7 years. After a year of legal separation we went to court to get divorced.
This was initiated by me. I stopped the proceedings as she kept wanting to add things(survivor benefits, etc.).
Recently she said enough is enough and she wanted a divorce and wouldn't ask for anything more then stated in the legal separation papers. Out of spite, i told her i'd stay separated forever. Circumstances have appeared that have made me rethink the uncontested divorce.
How does one obtain an uncontested divorce? Do both parties need to be involved or does the one show on the doorstep of the other with papers to be signed?
Does one party need the okay of the other to seek an uncontested divorce? Lawyers needed? Both parties have to appear in court?
